I"m a born Ballina girl so Ive had the experience of growing up around this amazing shire. For a 20 year old Ive crammed quite a lot into my year so far and i continue to do more as i grow. My work as a Hair and Makeup Artist is one that helps me express my creative ability and its a job i love. I was never amazing academically i always struggled but as soon as i was to step into my Art classroom my mind would explode. School then was all about University and achieving your HSC with high marks. I want to be that student that inspires men and women that its not all about that but hands on experience. I left school at 16 and began and apprenticeship which became hand in hand with now my Diploma in Specialist Makeup. I\'m a shy person but im also not shy of talking an ear or two off. Ive had the opportunity to work as joint Head makeup Artist for Murwullimbah Theatre and worked as a student assisting in Fright Night at Movie world.I was lucky enough to be chosen as Makeup Artist student of the year for 2014 for our region at Tafe Campus. I\'ve grown up in such a supportive family and im so grateful because it has taught me to be the kind and compassionate person i am. And to help lead an example for other students along the way.
