My journey has taken me behind the scenes of a Hollywood "Formula 1" production, where I worked in the casting and makeup departments and got credited. I’ve also had the opportunity to collaborate with artists like @freektv, contributing to music videos and character-driven content.
​
My focus within special effects makeup includes water-based (aqua) makeup for flexible, skin-safe applications; realistic blood effects; trauma simulation; fantasy creature design and etc. I also work with prosthetics to build layered, dimensional looks that hold up on camera and under stage lighting. From full facial transformations to detailed texture work, I enjoy pushing creative boundaries while ensuring practicality for performance settings.
​
With a background that also includes fashion styling, acting, and modeling, I bring a broad visual understanding to every project. Whether I’m designing an eerie wound or a whimsical creature, I approach each collaboration with care, adaptability, and a deep passion for storytelling through makeup.
