Makeup Artist AUstin, TX
As a child, I would watch my mother primp and preen in a little brown hand mirror every morning on the back porch of our Southern Alabama home. Equipped with hot curlers, a bag of makeup, and her ambition, she would work patiently to enhance her beauty before she started her day.
There may have been a much larger mirror in the bathroom, but she knew something important that I would learn later: natural lighting is best.
As a teen, I began this morning ritual too. With my hot rollers, Caboodle of makeup, and determination, I became a younger version of my mother, crafting a look that made me feel my best. My beauty ritual completed, rising from that porch always felt a gulp of fresh air. I could face the day.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to the beauty in everyday rituals.

5 quick things
My beauty style is a little French countryside, a little porch swing, a bouquet of freshly cut garden flowers—and a whole lot of intention. It’s relaxed yet refined, with a focus on enhancing what’s already there and creating space for you to feel effortlessly beautiful, inside and out.
Before becoming a makeup artist and educator, I worked in oncology urgent care, where I learned the deep power of human connection, compassion, and how beauty—even in the smallest moments—can be a source of strength. That experience still shapes the way I approach my work today: with presence, purpose, and care.

I have made a personal commitment to use #donoharmbeauty to effect change in the world.
All of the makeup I use is cruelty-free. Always.
Not only do I meticulously research and choose furry-friend friendly products for your beauty experience, but I also give back a portion of my profits to an animal charity that protects animals from cruelty, exploitation, and other abuses. I choose to do this for all the living creatures who don't get a choice.

I love animals, and I think it’s an atrocity that 500,000 animals are harmed and killed each year for the sake of cosmetics testing. This does not have to happen.
That’s why all of the makeup I use is cruelty-free. Always.
