My family worked in the beauty industry while I was growing up and it certainly rubbed off on me! Before starting my degree at University Centre Leeds, I studied Production Arts makeup at Stockton Riverside College and both courses have taught me key techniques such as postiche, flat moulding and body art. One of my greatest achievements has been my final showcase – creating a full-body art design, applying it to the model, and incorporating a headpiece and special effects suitable for the catwalk. I had to do it all in six hours! I have loved developing my knowledge and hope to get a position in the fashion industry or film & TV.
