I began as the Resident Makeup Artist and assistant to the owner. As my styling skills grew, I took on more clients of my own and continued doing makeup for photo shoots and weddings. In addition to hair and makeup artistry, I was responsible for booking appointments and weddings. Eventually I became the official Social Media Coordinator for the studio as I utilized photography and marketing tools to boost visibility and traffic for the business page.
