I started doing makeup for prom clients out of my bedroom in 2018. 

​

Since then, I've worked on photo and video shoots, music projects, weddings, fashion shows, short films, and other creative productions. What I love most about makeup is its ability to tell a story, shift a mood, or help someone see themselves differently.

​

While makeup artistry is at the center of what I do, I'm also drawn to the bigger picture. I love creative direction, branding, graphic design, photography, and finding ways those worlds can overlap.

​

Originally from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, I'm now based in Berkeley, California. I graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2025 with a B.F.A. in Business of Beauty & Fragrance and a minor in Fashion Marketing & Management. During my time at SCAD, I founded and served as President of the Makeup Artistry Club, where I connected students with artists and educators across the beauty industry.

​

Some of the most meaningful parts of my education have come from learning directly from artists I admire. I've trained with Hailee Clark, organized an educational workshop featuring Eugenia Weston, and I've also had the opportunity to learn from and observe artists, including Rose-Marie Swift, Andrew Sotomayor, Donni Davy, and Daniel Martin.

​

I'm currently completing my esthetics education at JD Academy of Salon & Spa and expanding my services into skincare, brows, and waxing.

​

Whether I'm working on a set, behind the scenes of a creative project, or with someone in my chair, my goal is always the same: to help people feel comfortable, confident, and like themselves.
