A working makeup artist for 25+ years, author and mentor obsessed with: chocolate, my hunky hubby, fur babes, Audrey Hepburn’s glitter eye makeup in "How to Steal a Million" and helping other artists and stylists have the tools and confidence to create  a dream career and life they love.

 Did you start out with boundless passion, then get discouraged because nothing went the way you thought it would? 
 I did when I dove in optimistically after leaving my criminal justice studies for beauty school. My makeup side hustle started with no connections.  I lived in a tiny, cheap apartment, ate ramen and pb & j's, heard lots of "no's" and took every gig to learn, network and collaborate with others often working extra long hours while building my business... it was often brutal.

 But once I learned the right strategies, I was able to build a successful business that's lasted for 25+ years working with top editorial, fashion, commercial and celebrity clients.

 In 2002 after some success other artists sought out my help to teach them how to build their portfolios and get more bookings.

Since then I've been working on changing the narrative for fellow artists and creatives through my coaching programs. We focus on six different pillars of mindset, business and artistry to help give you all the tools you need to be unstoppable.  I believe that when you have clarity around your purpose and goals, then, apply the right strategies you can achieve your dreams in a fraction of the time.
