Hi Everyone!
I hope you're all having a fabulous Monday! I know it has been a WHILE since I have posted on here so I thought today would be the day I post about my life since big things are happening in my career! So today I am excited to announce that I have been selected to be on the makeup team for the Anthropology Runway show for 2013 in New York City! I must say I am very excited and looking forward to such an amazing opportunity. On top of that I was officially published on IMDB today for my role as Hair and Makeup for the movie poster I did with actor Dave Barroso for his new movie 8-Ball. I feel so blessed and grateful to be doing what I love and to have all the support you all have shown me as well as my family and everyone who has believed in me. For those of you who don't know me feel free to follow me on Facebook, on my Twitter, or my Website. Wow so where do I begin, I haven't posted on here since last September so where do I start? Haha... So since September I have lived with the stunning designer Anna Maria La Bianca and was doing her makeup for her events as well as her Fashion Night Out debut. After moving into my new place I worked Fall Fashion Week 2012 doing makeup for Stevie Boi, an amazing sunglasses and outer wear designer having designed for Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, Basketball Wives from VH1, and many more celebrities. While working on his Runway show I had the opportunity to do his makeup personally while VH1 was taping the Basketball Wives and I was featured on VH1 as Stevie Boi's makeup artist. After Fall Fashion Week I was working on a few TV pilots, 1 that is still on going further negotiation and is in the final stages of being picked up so I can't disclose any information about it but what I can say is that the crew, producers, actors and actresses and everyone involved are a phenomenal group of people and I can't wait to see where this amazing production goes. While working on the TV Pilots I have been doing a bunch of photo shoots with amazing photographers and top agency models. I have done shoots with Enrique Vega-- a well known photographer from America's Next Top Model as well as Jeff Rojas, Larry Baglio, Dave Paek, and Jay Marroquin in which we shot for Designers Christian Siriano and Gemma Kahng during Spring Fashion Week 2013. While doing all this work Freelancing for myself I have been Freelancing for Mac Cosmetics in Flatiron and Soho, NY. I must say I have been super blessed to meet everyone along the way helping me grow and learn as an artist as well as more about myself. I know that within 7 months I have accomplished a lot but I know this is not even close to where I see myself within a year... This is just the beginning and I can't wait to see whats next! I promise I will be more up-to-date on here keeping you all in the know and please follow me on my Facebook page to see up to date pictures of everything that is happening!
Stay Posted,
Have a great rest of your Monday!

Hi Ya'll!
So I just got a moment to sit and chill for a minute and I stumbled upon this Nicki Minaj (http://www.upworthy.com/watch-nicki-minaj-casually-dismantle-sexism-while-applying-her-eyeliner?g=5&c=bm1) video debunking sexism and it really got me thinking about how inspiriting it is to see such strong determined women take an idea or a dream and make it come true. I know many might not think that such women like Lady Gaga and Nicki Minaj are huge influential beings but I certainly think that they are and I am constantly influenced and inspired by them. Its inspiring to see the confidence in knowing exactly what they want and made it their own, changing the industry unlike any other person before. Just a little thought. Hope your all having a beautiful Tuesday night!

Inspiration is everywhere :)

Good morning everyone!
It's been a while since I have blogged and I apologize! I am currently on my way to Orlando to work for Parade of Memories in Disney as a touch up makeup specialist to help make sure all 1,600 girls are set and ready to go for their performances they are about to par take in the next few days. As I am flying I have some time to blog and I felt a serious urge to blog about all the inspiration that is around us. As my schedule is quickly picking up I am realizing while flying that inspiration is all around us and we really need to take it all in wether we are busy or in slow mo. As I look out the window I am super inspired by the scenic view of the mountains we are passing as a lone dirt path crosses right across them almost off the beaten path and I am really inspired by that. Maybe it's because right now so many great things are happening in my life and they are not on a set path and I am really grateful for that. I love the spontaneity of my line of work right now and I'm really just living in the moment and taking it for what is it. I feel super blessed to have these opportunities to do makeup an help people let their inner beauty shine :)
I also feel so blessed for all of you that have supported me and have joined me on my journey as well as all the beautiful people I have met a long the way :) I just wanted to say thank you.
