My inspiration comes from knowledge, experiences and surroundings. I always knew I wanted to live and work in the artistic world. The journey; although, not far from over, has been many times rewarding. For example, as a freelance makeup artist for Christian Dior, I've been able to explore the high-fashion world using a luxury brand.

Each month, I visit department stores, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, Nordstom and Dillard's in San Antonio and Austin. I walk in these exclusive stores and remember when I was a child in an upscale store, looking at all the glamourous maniquin displays, and embracing the art. I was elated to be part of my surroundings, as I am today.

When I'm not performing a makeup application, I'm providing spa facials, under the scope of my esthetician license. I have been working in skin care and makeup for six years.

Hairstyling is also a specialty of mine. I truly believe a love for hair artistry, means knowing how and loving to do more outside the box.

I am a Paul Mitchell the School San Antonio graduate hopeful for hair design.

Whether it's photo shoots, television, hair shows, runway, or weddings, I enjoy making people look beautiful.

Former titles include, morning show producer for KGBT-TV, a CBS affiliate, and education reporter for Valley Morning Star, a daily print news publication.
