Tell us how you began your career as a hair and makeup artist?
I’ve always been creative and very interested in different forms of artistic expression – I love that I can help sculpt a character and draw out natural beauty from the amazing people I get to collaborate with on the daily.

What is your favorite hair trend this season?
We are seeing so many different hair trends and an attitude shift and awareness that the scope doesn’t need to be narrow – a larger range of inspiration is becoming more accessible and there are tons of fun looks and styles to try. I personally am loving jeweled accents and Baroque headbands – so so cute for holiday parties, too.

What is your favorite makeup trend this season?
One of my tried and true favorite fall and winter combinations is clean skin, defined brows, and a matte red lip; SO simple but so beautiful! Two of my go-to favorites are Nars Powermatte Lip Pigment in Don’t Stop and Just Push Play.

Go-to beauty product?
Great multi-use products are absolutely clutch in my kit and in my personal life! I love a lip, cheek, and eye multiple like NUDESTIX Nudies Matte Blush & Bronze – they have several beautiful shades but I probably reach for In The Nude or Sunkissed most frequently – seriously perfect for every day.

Best beauty advice?
Have fun, don’t be so hard on yourself, take care to be gentle around your eyes, and always always remove your makeup before bed!

Style icon?
I honestly don’t know – I think I’ve drawn inspo from so many different movies, events, color palettes, … people during my lifespan – my style is a personalized concoction of events and memories!

Where did you draw your inspiration for the Modeliste Cover shoot with Camila Coelho?
Camila herself was my inspiration – we wanted to let her natural beauty shine through and that it did! She’s amazing, that girl!

What was your favorite look of the shoot?
All of the looks were SO GOOD and she incorporated pieces from her own line – Camila Coelho Collection, as well! I couldn’t possibly choose a favorite.

What are your plans for over the Holidays?
I am very excited for the holidays because I get to spend time with my husband and our family – classic holiday films and Michael Buble’s Christmas Album will be involved.

What are you looking forward to most in 2020?
Possibilities!
