EXPERIENCE
I am a licensed Nail Artist that began my career working with brands such as Deborah Lippmann, butter LONDON, Essie, Kiss, and Dashing Diva, among others. I quickly became a highly sought after Manicurist at New York Fashion Week working for many noted designers. Aside from NYFW, I have spent the majority of my time behind-the-scenes manicuring for ad campaigns and look books for the likes of Valentino, Chanel, Miu Miu, Victoria Beckham, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu, and Diesel, as well as creating elaborate nail art for exclusive events hosted by Disney, Nickelodeon, Elle MacPherson Intimates, Sephora, and Beauty.com, to name a few. My work has been worn by celebrities including Lupita Nyong'o, Lily James, and Margot Robbie, and featured in Harper's Bazaar, Vogue China, Nails Magazine, on QVC, Fashion Gone Rogue, and in Vanity Fair.
