Glorious start

By education, I am a Commerce graduate but got married early and, so was caught up in that phase of life. I have always been keen on make-up and skin care, and after getting pregnant with my second son, it did not take long to re-ignite my passion. After a lot of research, determination and passion, I have am finally here.

Professional insight

I am a self taught artist. I have participated in several workshops and master classes conducted by the best in the industry.

First break

I received a call from a photograpger for a shoot with Miss India Earth. At that time, in my portfolio I did not have even one picture to present to the team. But, I was destined to be a part of this segment and so, it all worked out.

Mentor

I look up to experts like Ambika Pillai, Puneet B Saini, Pat McGrath, Sarah Tanno, The Alex Box, Kevyn Aucoin, to name a few, for their journey and the amazing work they have created over the years. They are industry professionals, ready to share their insights on their field and occupation.
