Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First, I get clear on my student's goals. Based on what I hear I may help them define additional or more specific goals. I analyze their learning style and adjust accordingly. I use tested methods to deliver information in a multitude of ways including printed hand outs, demonstrations, hands on activity, recommended videos, etc.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I began my education at Dawn Til Dusk Makeup School where I was certified. I was trained and certified by MAC Cosmetics in 2006. I completed the Body Of Art Leadership Program for MUAs in 2012. I became certified in Basic Teaching Methods in 2017. I continue to educate myself through various trade shows and workshops including 'l'm Going To Class' by Erica Carr. And I have studied as a mentee under agency artist Hector Simancas for several years.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Every client is different. The lessons and packages are customizable. Variables taken into account are level, time, and travel distance.
How did you get started teaching?
I have always been a natural teacher and I worked with children for many years prior to makeup. Officially I began teaching makeup while working at Alcone Professional Makeup supplier. I saw an opportunity and created the Continuing Education Program. From there I began teaching regularly at Nina MUA school.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with beginners who have no background or interest in professional makeup and I have worked with existing professional makeup artists. I have worked with all ages and experience levels as well as some who speak little English.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Make sure they have a website. Look at their work on their social media platforms to see that they are current and have a style that emulates what you want to learn. And lastly, seek out someone who is not only a great artist but a teacher/coach as well.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
What education do they have? How many students have they worked with? Do they have a referral? What have they achieved in their own career? What is their teaching style?
