About

​I am a qualified Makeup Artist and Florist with a strong background in creative styling and customer-facing roles. My experience ranges from providing expert beauty advice and application to managing visual merchandising and retail operations, including cash handling and inventory organization.

​I have a deep passion for aesthetics—specifically Dark Fairycore and Whimsigothic styles—and I thrive in environments that require a high level of technical skill and artistic vision. Whether I am working on a film set, coordinating floral arrangements, or assisting customers at a beauty counter, I pride myself on my professionalism, my ability to follow a structured schedule, and my dedication to quality.

​Currently, I am seeking a Permanent Part-Time role where I can utilize my Level 4 Makeup Artistry training to provide exceptional service and help maintain a prestige brand image.
