Hi there! My name is Emily and I am a Portland based makeup artist originally from the Bay Area of California. I received my Esthetics license from The Paul Mitchell School of Cosmetology, received two airbrushing certificates through Kett Cosmetics and graduated from the Art of Makeup school with a Multi-media Makeup Artist certification.

I have worked as a makeup artist on several different types of projects including two music videos called “Secrets” and Sara” by a local band named WeThree, a commercial for Polo Ralph Lauren featuring American Olympic Skateboarder Jordan Barratt and NBA player CJ McCollum, Episode 3 of Oh Myh Dating Hell and various other photoshoots and sets. I love working around many facets of makeup whether it is beauty, editorial, fantasy, or special affects to create different forms of art.

I have always had a strong passion for makeup whether it was bringing out the beauty in others or creating something new and bringing ideas to life through the artistry of makeup.

Besides makeup my other passions include almost any activity outdoors, hiking with my dog, kayaking or exploring new places! My friends and family are the foundation of my life, tea is perfect for any weather and I’m always trying to find ways to challenge my fears!
