A curated selection of projects that highlight my range as a makeup artist and director.

Makeup Director for Signature Fashion Show at LaSalle College 2025

"Directing makeup for fashion shows is one of my greatest joys. It's about more than just beauty—it's about creating an atmosphere, telling a story, and collaborating with brilliant artists, designers, and stylists to bring a collective vision to life.

For several years, I’ve had the honour of directing the makeup for LaSalle College’s Signature Fashion Show—one of the largest fashion events in Canada, featuring over 90 models each year."
