I am born in Tauranga, a small seaside town in New Zealand. I studied Fine arts at the Whitecliffe college of the Arts & Design where I specialized in painting, art history, graphic design, sculpture and photography.

I moved to New York in 1998 to pursue my  artistic work as a freelance make-up artist.

I have worked with the greatest photographers such as Bruce Weber, Ines van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh   Matadin, Paolo Roversi, David Sims, Patrick
   Demarchelier and Mario Sorrenti. I have also worked
    with film directors such as David Lynch and Sofia
     Coppola.

I am the New Lancôme Make-up Artistic
 Director. I love Lancôme because there is a
  tradition that grounds the brand, but in the same
  time it is futuristic and high tech... and always
 feminine.

LANCÔME IS MY NEW FAMILY.
