Signature Style:

Subtle beauty with a pop of intense color

Achieving what others have told you isn’t possible.

#1 Styling tip: Less is more, make-up is there to enhance beauty, not to hide and mask the person sitting in my chair.

Bold Experiences:

- Being awarded a scholarship to the Aveda Institute as a result of participating and placing in the Raw Talent Runway Scholarship Contest

- Representing the Aveda Institute of San Antonio by performing make up looks for the Edwin Neill II Full Potential Student Contest, and being invited to Minneapolis, MN on behalf of the Aveda Congress to perform an editorial application on a model amongst leaders in the industry

- More recently (December 2010) being invited to shadow various Tony Award winning make up artists on Broadway to create and implement make up looks for characters performing on stage in front of sold out audiences in NYC.

Favorite Make Up Brush:

Beveled blending brush, this little sucker has the ability to create just about any look desired.

Favorite Fashion Designers:

Betsey Johnson; her cutting edge design is a mix of many different eras in fashion, made to fit perfectly with any time, and occasion.

Style icons:

Jackie Kennedy Onassis. A woman in the publics eye, never to be out done.

NEVER LEAVE HOME WITHOUT:

A scarf, you just never know when a subtle accessory that can completely change your wardrobe is just the touch you needed.

WHAT'S PLAYING ON MY IPOD:

Anything from Broadway standards to modern punk. Shuffle is a necessity for my ever-changing mood.

Favorite Travel Destination

New York City, the hustle bustle, and living art in every form is a constant inspiration.

You probably don't know that: What's Next:

I grew up on a farm, from bailing hay, to feeding cattle, fishing and four wheeling, I was raised Texan through and through.

What’s next?

In an industry that marries art and fashion you can never tell what experiences will come next. Looking forward to taking a sojourn to the big apple again, and seeing what great techniques I’ll come back with this time.
