As it’s our first interview of the year 2020, tell us what's been your biggest professional learning of 2019? What do you do to maintain a work-life balance?
I love my profession and I love it because I work with different people every day. So, be it a celebrity or a model, every day there is a new learning. Whether it’s make up skills or life skills, since I work with people, at times they learn from me and vice versa. Effectively, I am learning something new from everybody. It’s an ongoing process when you are in a creative field that you learn, not just every day, but every minute. There are so many different things, whether it’s lifestyle or it’s your makeup skills, everything is a learning process. You learn and grow a little each day of your life and that’s my takeway from the year gone by. Learn something new every day and become better in what you do.
You’ve been in the industry for decades now. Having worked with celebrities and brides, how has your journey panned out so far?
