After holidng a full time job at Chrisine Valmy on Fifth Avenue in NYC. I worked in TV and Industrial-Educational Video in NYC, Los Angeles and AZ. Settling in at the Steven Van Warner Photography studio in AZ, in 1984. When not helping Steve manage the office and his clients. I assisted him with lighting, gaffing and film development. Also providing the Hair and Make-up for all of his print and portfolio shoots. When the job was completed, I continued to work independently on Videos, TV Commercials and photo shoots.

In the mid 90's when larger budget films started pouring into AZ, bringing their own makeup department crew with them. I was asked to provide "On-Location Massage and Facials" for several of these visiting production companies. And while continuing to do Hair and Make-up for local Videos, Commercials, and Conventions. I began traveling through out the nation, working on Independent Film projects doing Sfx Make-up/Hair.

I am excited to have recently added Web-cast experience to my portfolio and am very grateful to have the opportunity to continue working in a wide variety of genres which utilize either traditional or new technologies.
