About
I am a qualified Hair and Makeup Artist with experience across salon, education, and creative industries, including film and performing arts. During my years running my own salon, I trained and mentored junior stylists, supporting them to develop strong technical and professional standards. More recently, I ve been working on creative projects in film and theatre, and I m now looking for a role in education or training where I can share my experience, support learners growth, and continue developing as an educator.
