| I began as a Hair Designer in 1990 and as a Makeup Artist with Olan MillsGlamour Studio in 1993. Around the same time I became interested in photogaphy and began taking photographs of local bands. Eeventually I became a photographer then went in to management. I have always had quite a talent for all kinds of artistry, weather it be on canvas, people, or film. Unfortunatly Olan Mills closed the Glamour Studios down. While employed at the studio I began working with free-lance photographers in "on-location type settings". I also continued photography on my own out side of the studio on a free-lance basis. In my experience I have had the opportunity to work with many wonderful people. I have applied makeup and taken photographs of people from many walks of life and in all types of settings. I have applied very dramatic makeup styles as well. I became interested in Film when the movie Pure Country was made. It was a local set and I was invited to be an extra inside the Prairie Rose (big bar seen). I was also filmed by MTV crews real life series (Feb-2004) at Taboo Tatoo in Deep Ellum. I received my first film credit as the Makeup Artist & Set Photographer on the film called "Bobby Speaking". ( check out BobbySpeaking.com ) filmed here in North Texas, directed by (Rick) Austin Wayne with 2nd Team Productions. I received my first official Makeup Artist and Set Photography credits. I am also in a seen with Keith Lehman (Al Borelan's twin brother from Tool Time) in this film and look forward to working with 2nd Team Productions on up-coming film's. I did some background work on LAX (NBC) which aired September 2004. So if you get a chance to see the series pilot or catch a re-run look for me! Going forward I have had the chance to take some great band photos! some local and some large.. to see them be sure to check out my links... After 13 years of Professional Makeup Artistry. I ventured in to a new avenue, Permanent Makeup also known as Micropigmentation. Enjoy the benefit of waking up with your makeup already on! It's permanently yours, enjoy a "New You". I am currently working directly for a well respected Permanent Coametic Institution & Pigment Manufactuing Company in Arlington, Texas. I look forward to what the future holds for me in this profession. |
