​After completing my education, I jumped into the professional makeup scene at MAC Cosmetics. I spent six incredible years there as a manager, pouring my heart into every project. It wasn’t just about honing my makeup skills; it was a time of immense personal growth. Building genuine relationships with clients reshaped my perspective and ignited a deeper passion in me—not just for applying makeup, but for creating unique, inspired looks that truly reflect each individual’s style and personality.

​After leaving MAC Cosmetics, I knew I wanted to explore new opportunities that felt more aligned with my passions. That's when I found Lu (literally a day after- divine timing is crazy!), and everything changed. Starting the journey of developing La Vida was incredibly fulfilling. It felt like a fresh chapter where I could pour my creativity and expertise into something meaningful. Being a part of this salon has been such a rewarding experience. The sense of community we have here truly feels like family. Every day, I’m grateful to be surrounded by talented individuals who share the same vision and passion for our craft. The supportive environment has allowed me to grow both personally and professionally, and Im so thankful to be able to call this “work”.

​As I wanted to explore my creativity further, I made the decision to venture out on my own as a travel creative and visual artist. This new chapter allowed me to work with a diverse clientele across various locations, capturing beauty in all its forms. Stepping out on my own was intimidating, but I knew that growth was essential. Taking that leap pushed me into a realm of self-discovery and confidence, opening doors to new challenges and opportunities that helped shape the artist I knew I could become. Throughout this journey, I have been fortunate enough to encounter a variety of amazing experiences that have truly shaped my career. I’ve had the opportunity to work on high-profile celebrity music videos, which allowed me to immerse myself in the process of capturing their artistic vision, photoshoots that challenged my skills and pushed me to my creative limits, assisted in editorial projects, had my work featured in Times Square,and have taken part in multiple New York Fashion Weeks, where I was able to witness cutting-ege makeup and collaborate with talented profand essionals in the industry.

​Currently, I am working toward a nursing degree with the goal of becoming a cosmetic injector. This path seamlessly combines my love for makeup and artistry with vital medical expertise. Makeup has always served as a creative outlet for me, and I intend to maintain my role as a visual artist, experimenting with various techniques to enhance my skills. My journey showcases my dedication to personal growth and my genuine passion for beauty in all its dimensions.
