About Me

This is me, the artist:
This profile was edited with easygifs.com Editor
I am a Makeup Artist who was born and raised in the SF Bay Area(my heart will always be there,) but now living in Los Angeles to expand my career.
I have never been happier about what my future can bring. I am following a dream that I have surpressed for quite some time. And am ecstatic to freely go forth with it. I am happy to be able to run along with my passion, rather than treating it as if its something of less importance.
Although I act very professional (while still making it fun,)I dont like to call myself a professional as it insinuates that I know it all, when in the industry I have choosen, there is always something more to learn. And thats what I love about it so much!
Some know me as the insatiable one, which is still very much true. And I now believe that to be a key element in what may play a huge part in my future success.
p.s. With no sexual intentions, I will call you hun,sweetie,tiger and cupcake if I so choose to do so, AND you WILL like it! So just Deal!(no pun intended, for those who know my last name)
Hey everyone, Im posting a sneak peak photo of the fabulously horrifying job the team who worked on this shoot did(ahem, including me!)The Joker â€¢ Razorblade Grin Photography Models: Metallic Muse(in the bloody nurse costume) and Gypsy (on the floor) MUA: I worked on Metallic Muse in the Nurse's Costume & Stacy Darrow worked on Gypsy who is chained up on the floor.

My Interests

SPOONING

I'd like to meet:
