MEET THE ARTIST

Originally hailing from North Carolina and now a resident of Los Angeles, California, for almost a decade, I embarked on my professional journey in the entertainment industry as a dancer and choreographer. At the age of 18, I was scouted by Cirque du Soleil, where I served as a performer, sparking my initial interest in makeup. During my years on tour, I honed my skills, transforming my face into various characters night after night.

Over the past decade, I have cultivated a wealth of experience, collaborating with renowned personalities such as Sam Smith, Demi Lovato, and 5th Harmony. I spent two years in Germany working with artists under Universal Music Group and further expanded my horizons as the creative director and choreographer for the "RuPaul’s Drag Race" world tour.

​

Transitioning into the realm of permanent makeup, I pursued formal education at Elite Permanent Makeup. Over four years, I attained the status of Master Artist and instructor in Santa Monica, CA. I am eager to continue sharing my extensive knowledge and experiences in the cosmetic tattoo industry. Now operating as a solo artist, I aspire to broaden my reach, establishing a presence on both coasts in LA and NYC. I am excited about connecting with new clients and students, near and far, as I contribute to the future of the cosmetic tattoo industry.

My experiences as a performance artist have afforded me the opportunity to immerse myself in diverse cultures, residing in locations such as Tokyo, Berlin, Montreal, and New York City. Throughout this period, I acquired extensive expertise in various facets of the industry, including choreography, production design for both stage and screen, costume design, and, notably, makeup artistry.

After dedicating three years to the RuPaul's Drag Race franchise, I identified the necessity for a career transition. Harnessing my expertise in makeup artistry, I seamlessly pivoted into the realm of cosmetic tattooing. I achieved licensure as a body art practitioner and pursued comprehensive certification across the industry through esteemed institutions, notably Elite Permanent Makeup and Leaders SMP Academy.

I ventured to Los Angeles with a steadfast commitment to pursue my dreams while exploring and embracing my queerness as a fundamental element in all aspects of my artistic expression. Through mediums such as photography, conceptual videography, and stage performances, I have actively sought to carve out my own creative perspective and articulate a visual narrative that reflects both my personal journey and artistic identity.
