Can you tell us a little about you?

I’m half Australian, half English, I grew up mostly in Japan. I’ve spent most of my life modeling but also work in nightlife/events. Im a voracious reader, foodie, love traveling and running.

How long have you been a makeup artist and how did you get your start?

I started assisting a friend in London when I was modeling and loved it so much, I went to school and started freelancing when I moved to NY.

Where do you get your inspiration from?

Mostly social media, magazines, runway shows and celeb glam.

What are some of your makeup products that you use?

I love my charlotte tilbury lipstick and liner. Otherwise I tend to rotate my products super frequently.

Who have you worked for and who would you like to work for in the future?

I’d love to work for Pat McGrath or Isamaya.

Some previous clients have included:

Cynthia Rowley, Gold’s Gym, Nike, Def Jam, Covergirl, Izod, Arrow, Naturalizer, Bumble, Hearst, Root Studios, La Mer, PVH, AAP CA, Next Models, One Management, Red Models, Buffalo London, Beauty Bakerie, Office Magazine, Twelv Magazine, The Ones 2 Watch, Wonderland, Ladygunn Magazine, Solstice Magazine

Any makeup tips you'd like to share with us?

Play around! Makeup is fun it doesn’t need to be stressful.

If you were not a makeup artist, what would be your dream job?

I used to be a freelance writer and I loved it. If I could be a travel writer / content creator / travel show host, something’s like, this I’d be in heaven.

What are three things every girl needs in her makeup bag?

A little concealer, whatever lipstick / lip product floats your boat, and some kind of lotion.

What are common mistakes you see women make on their makeup?

Wearing makeup looks that are super dated, you need to change it up after a while or you age yourself.

What do you think of the magazine?

I think independent community driven publications like this are awesome and a breath of fresh air.
