All this to say I quickly -ish started to process that my different, my ability to “shake,” was my superpower and that I could either conform and disappoint MYSELF or I could take the road less traveled and be proud of the story behind me and stories ahead. There were MANY times where my energy alone shook the room…. Being of color, born in the late … I won’t say my age lmao!! And from Texas, this journey HAS DEFINITELY not been easy!! Each phase had unnecessary complications, whether it was because my drag demeaned the expectation of my talents else where, the fact I’m of color, and/or the fact that even outside of my drag I typically exude a gender fluid aesthetic. From the essence of a mood down to the details of the aesthetic to the voice and tone of the message, drag collectively produces an extension to my confidence and a private mental studio for my overall creativity. Her IG is (shameless plug) lol!! Drag initiated my creative journey and it’s definitely a passionate piece to the puzzle. The other side of my art is my Drag Queen alter ego. My work has ranged from providing on location private makeup, to red carpet events such as the Golden Globes, the Grammys & the emmys, backstage artistry for NYFW, to roles as key artist for independent fashion shows, editorial shoots, film/television, as well as creative direction for fashion editorials and indi brands. I’m really not a niche artist when it comes to makeup artistry, I strongly appreciate a clean beauty moment, a glamour moment and definitely creative makeup moments as well! My “category” if I were to have one would be RANGE! And my work in the creative direction department reflects that very MOOD as well.

I’ve shared amazing experiences with clients such as Ariana Debose, Netflix, Elle, RuPaul’s Drage Race Season 12 winner Jaida Essence Hall, Forty Five Ten, Suzy Batiz, Attitude Magazine, NYFW, HGTV, VH1, Hulu, The Bachelorette’s Rachel Lindsay, OWN, Shekinah Jo, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, D Magazine, & Apple Music. My dedication to sharing the importance of how beauty is not only captivating to look at, but impactful to feel, is what drives the enhancement of my skills and allows my transitions between genres to be… Effortless. My art has two sides, one side is makeup artistry/creative direction.
