I have been a fully qualified Makeup Artist for 5 years. My obsession with makeup started in my childhood when I would smudge Mum's green and pink Estée Lauder eyeshadows all over my face....

In 2013, I decided to take my interest in Makeup to the next level and I applied for the 2014 Part time Diploma of Makeup Artistry at Kristen Stewart School of Makeup here in Christchurch.

I was taught by the amazing Claire Randall and will forever cherish the unforgettable techniques and opportunities she instilled upon me while I was studying. 

Ever since graduating with Distinction at KSSM, I have been given opportunities to work on shows such as NZFW'15, NZFW’19, ARA fashion shows, photoshoots, weddings and formals.

In February 2019 Kristen Stewart gave me an incredible opportunity to teach the upcoming Part Time Diplomas at Kristen Stewart School of Makeup. I hope to pass on all of my knowledge to my students.
