Professional active in the fashion and beauty industry as makeup artist since 2007 and hairdresser and hairstylist since 1995. Open minded and very
creative individual specialised in both women and men grooming. I have been spending 26 years of my life into these fields, travelling mainly among Milan, London, Rome, Paris and New York.
Being a makeup artist, hairdresser and hairstylist means to me sharing my inner world, my artistic vision and the type of person and
professional I am.
Creating a style means to me to fine tune with the inner beauty and needs of each client, establishing a long lasting relationship
based on real trust. Providing value added to others is my mission.
I am firmly convinced that each individual or client firm has the right to feel itself special and unique, in each occasion, time of
the day or its life.
I am very keen on developing modern, creative and innovative styles, that I create alternating with more traditional , fashion and
classic ones depending on my client’s needs.
I am always keeping myself updated on new market trends developed by market leaders, with the aim at continuously improving and
challenging myself.
Starting from the most traditional makeup and hairdressing-styling techniques, I have then developed my own style and increased my
skills into geometric bodypainting artworks and special effects used into movies and fashion events.
I am personally convinced that continuous improvement and continuous challenging of ourselves, is the way to go to become a leader in
our industry. I have experienced working for:

For ever, Charlotte Tilbury, Inglot, Illamasqua, Elite, Urban Management, Das Models, WhyNot, 2Morrow, Beatrice Models, Vogue Italia, Cosmopolitan Armenia, Kult Magazine, Posh
