My work was also published in the Aquage industry publication Heads Up.
THE PEROT MUSEUM
Every November, The Perot Museum in downtown Dallas, has a Night At the Museum Fundraiser. It is catered by Wolfgang Puck Catering and the proceeds go to STEM, science, technology, engineering and math education in Texas.
ELEVATE, was the project theme in 2016. The ELEVATE theme was dedicated to honoring things and beings in flight. I did the hair, feather hair extensions & makeup for the main models. The models were draped in capes made of beautiful feathers. For the rest of the evening, I applied feather hair extensions and ornate temporary feather tattoos for the attendees.
In 2018, the theme was ROCK THE PEROT, honoring gems & geology. I worked with Kelsey Marsh for this event. We applied crystal tattoos and fiber optic hair pieces.
DreamCatchers Hair Extensions
In 2018I continued my journey as an educator. I was certified and taught for DreamCatchers International. I also became apart of the trade show circuit . The show circut traveled to Irvine for training, the ISSE show in Long Beach, & the IBS show in New York. Additionally, I taught classes in Texas and New York & worked with the staff at the DC headquarters to revamp the entire education program.
