SAN ANTONIO MAKEUP ARTIST AND HAIR TEAM

HCBS FOUNDER + MAKEUP ARTST

[Experience ] My experience in the beauty industry began in 2008 enrolling students at Paul Mitchell the School San Antonio. After taking a break to finish my Bachelor’s degree and travel with my husband for his work, the beauty industry was calling me. I then began my journey as a primarily self taught bridal makeup artist 9 years ago. I have received certification through Glam Lab Studios and taken classes with top pro makeup artists such as Alicia Guevara and Kendal Kazeil. In 2022 I created Hill Country Bridal Stylists after seeing a need for a beauty team focused on Hill Country brides and those who want to look effortlessly beautiful.

HAIRSTYLIST + MAKEUP ARTIST

[Experience] I got my start in the bridal styling industry by accident when a friend, who does bridal styling asked me to help her curly hair at a wedding and I never stopped from there. I was on track to become a Spanish teacher but decided going to cosmetology school to become a licensed hairstylist was my calling!

HAIRSTYLIST

[Experience] I have always been fascinated with the beauty industry and the latest trends but my love for hairstyling began when I was 13 and my mom asked me to help touch up her hair color. I was so excited and the process felt very natural to me. That experience lead to me helping family and friends with their hairstyling needs. In 2016 I took a leap of faith, left my teaching career and decided to pursue my dream of becoming a licensed cosmetologist by attending The Salon Professionals Academy. My true passion was ignited helping men and women feel their absolute best!

HAIRSTYLIST + MAKEUP ARTIST

[Experience] I’ve been in the cosmetic industry for 19 years. Growing up in Southern California, I got my start working for a number of cosmetic companies from Bare Minerals to MAC. I was lucky enough to be able to work in LA on various photoshoots and movie/TV sets, but eventually found my calling in the bridal industry.

[Favorite Product} MAC Fix Plus Setting Spray and Bumble & Bumble Invisible Hair Oil Primer

[During My Free Time] My husband and I have been together for 14 years and we have 4 beautiful children and one spoiled golden retriever. In my spare time I love to be outside or on the water, work on DIY home projects, or read books. I am a coffee snob and am obsessed with Halloween.

[Love Note to You] I’m so thankful to have found something I love doing as my career. Often times I don’t actually feel like I’m working. Meeting clients/brides feels more like “girl time” to me. We get to talk, laugh, and sometimes cry together, all while being able to enhance their natural beauty and make them feel like their best selves.
