I work as a makeup artist full-time for a high-end national cosmetics retailer and I also freelance independantly.  I have experience with print, tv/film, runway, events, personal consultations and some special effects projects.  I am a Facial Specialist in the state of FL (completed Esthetics program at a state approved school).  I have over 5 years experience as a makeup artist.  I have a fully stocked kit of professional products, I am easy to work with and I am very quick and efficient with makeup application skills.  I am capable of providing *light* hair styling/wardrobe styling/art direction etc. though I prefer working with a professional artist who specializes in these fields when possible, so I can completely focus on the makeup.

Makeup is my full-time career, and I already have contacts that I work with to update my portfolio... so I typically do not do tfp/tfcd.  I suppose it never hurts to ask though, especially if you have a unique project or something that would be a phenominal addition to my resume'.  I am most likely to participate in TFI shoots if the location and date/time is convenient for me, to be totally honest.

Availability varies because I already have a full-time makeup job and the hours vary on a weekly basis, I do usually have a couple time-slots open for freelance every week though.  Contact me for specifics.
