Q: How did you get into makeup?

A: I have loved makeup since I was a little girl and I always knew I wanted some type of career in the beauty industry. In 2014 I started working as a beauty consultant for Merle Norman Cosmetics and my love for makeup continued to grow. In 2016 I decided to take makeup more serious and that’s when I found IMA and became certified.
