Introduction: Having my bachelor's degree in television has definitely benefitted my career as a makeup artist in Los Angles because so much of the work I do is put in front of a camera. I need to know how to apply product so that it looks best on-screen, and working behind the scenes in production has helped lay a solid foundation for my talents. My technical training has helped me become a better makeup artist by teaching me how to work well under the pressure of time constraints- which happens frequently on set. It also taught me to show up ready to produce results both on my own or as part of a team, and to be prepared for anything!

Mel was our one and only make-up artist for a two week shoot in Maine during the summer of 2012. She completed work on a cast of six main characters and numerous day players / extras. She worked within the limited timeframe she was given while achieving results above and beyond our expectations. She worked extremely well with our child actor who had to go through a severe transformation over the course of the shoot from a being healthy looking 12-year-old, to a boy who'd spent nine days lost in the woods of Maine. His make-up progression was phenomenal and is one of the main highlights of the film. Mel deeply cares about the quality of her work, I'd hire her again in an instant!

Melissa was my make up artist for my wedding day. She completed a trial before hand and was very helpful and professional with decision making. On the day of, she exceed expectation and was so patient with the chaos around us as she worked. Looking back at photos I couldn't be happier, it was the hottest day of the summer and she pulled through with recommendations to beat the natural elements!
