Whether the task at hand is print, a commercial, a music video, a VIP's red carpet appearance or television interview in HD, she seamlessly adjusts her technique to answer to the demands of varied lighting set-ups and pressure-packed situations.
For her assignments she has traveled the world and been face-to-face with the famous and infamous, from heads of state to ingénues in settings as diverse as the White House, royal weddings, the Oscars, the Grammys and the Super Bowl. She has collaborated with virtually every major beauty company including CHANEL and P&G on long-term projects in which her contribution varied from product development to creative direction and press events.
