How did you become a professional hair and makeup artist and what do you love most about your job?
I have been a hair and makeup artist for 20 years now and I still love my job and to work with Phoenix Agentur. Before I became a hair and makeup artist I worked as a hairdresser for 11 years, at salons like Vidal Sassoon, and still have a special passion for beautiful, healthy hair.
I am a team player and I love to create the perfect picture together with a team of great artists who put all their knowledge, passion and creativity into the project. To discover new faces and optimize their natural beauty is very rewarding for me.
What is your favorite beauty tool or technique on set?
I like to work with my hands and I love to do contourings with creme rouge.
Do you have a daily beauty routine you couldn’t live without?
There are two beauty products I use every morning before leaving the house: Some rouge for a fresh complexion and some mascara because it immediately gives you a groomed look.
Tell me about the most memorable moments of your career!
I really appreciate that my job gave me the opportunity to travel a lot and to meet so many interesting and inspiring people, celebrity clients as well as the stylists, photographers, models and art directors on set.
What is your source of inspiration, any role models?
My favorite source of inspiration has always been the Italian Vogue!
How do you like to spend your free time?
For me, the best way to relax is to spend time with my wonderful children!
