Freelancers don’t get hired in silence.

The reality of freelance life: No bookings = No income. Right now, work has been slow, and as a disabled and neurodivergent creative, traditional jobs aren’t always accessible to me. I rely on my craft to support myself, but without steady projects, even affording basic necessities has become a challenge.

If you or someone in your network is looking for a makeup artist, creative director, or beauty photographer, I’d love the opportunity to collaborate. Whether it’s a brand campaign, editorial shoot, product photography, or creative consulting, I bring nearly two decades of experience working with brands like Nike, MAC Cosmetics, Adidas, and Volkswagen.

I’m actively seeking paid opportunities, freelance work, or referrals. If you know of any leads, I’d truly appreciate the connection.

Thank you for your support—it truly makes a difference!

🌸✨ Hello, Community! ✨🌸

I hope this post finds you all in great spirits! I want to take a moment to share my journey as a makeup artist living with scleroderma. While this condition presents unique challenges, it has also fueled my passion for beauty and self-expression. 💖

Makeup is not just my profession; it’s my way of helping others shine and feel confident in their own skin. As I navigate this beautiful industry, I’m reaching out for your support. If you have any leads or opportunities available, or if you know someone who has, I would genuinely appreciate any connections!

Together, let’s celebrate the beauty in diversity and create magic through collaboration. Thank you for being such an amazing community—I’m grateful for each of you! 🌟💄

With love,
