Blissful Muse was born from my love of artistry and the belief that beauty should feel effortless, intentional, and deeply personal. After graduating from Make-Up Designory (MUD) and Leon's Beauty School, I spent the next decade working in TV/Film, commercial productions, and editorial campaigns that took me to NY, Paris, Italy, Mexico, and beyond. Along the way, I've cultivated a signature approach that fuses high-fashion artistry with the endurance and intentionality every wedding day deserves.
As the visionary and educator behind Blissful Muse, my greatest commitment is protecting the soul of our work - the artistry, the energy, and the connection behind every experience. Blissful Muse isn't just beauty - it's a movement of quiet luxury, built for dreamers who see getting ready as an art form.
