"Make-up and beauty are my passion. I have almost completed three years of a BA honors degree. Whilst studying I have had the opportunity to work on weddings, feature films, commercials, catwalks, theatre productions and photo shoots with some of the top make-up artists in the industry...and loved every minute. My art is my all, and I cant wait to see where this journey takes me!"
