My love of makeup came at a very young age. I got to practice on my dolls, stuffed animals, sister, and friends. I couldn't wait to get older just to be able to wear more makeup. I love making people feel beautiful. I believe that every person can be beautiful and has features that can be enhanced with right makeup. Having your makeup applied professionally should be an uplifting experience. Everyone has their own unique style which can be expressed through rich colors and textures. When I apply makeup on my clients, I seek their input then express my professional opinion on how we can best achieve their desired look. This should be a truly collaborative experience. I want you to feel and look your personal best. I received my Bachelors Degree from Central Michigan University in 1999. I have apprenticed under makeup artist Julie Strating and have a professional membership with MAC cosmetics. I also do freelance work for Chanel cosmetics and reside in Rockford, MI with my wonderful husband, Tim, and three amazing children Trey, Ty, and Baye. My daughter, Baye, is only four years old but seems to be following in her mother's footsteps. She already has a love of makeup and her own makeup kit.
