Where I Am Today And How I Got Here


Sometimes, everything is not so beautiful. I think it is important not only as an Artist, but as a person to voice how I came to be where I am today and what has inspired me. I am where I am today because of everyone who I have been fortunate enough to come in contact with throughout the years on this place we call Earth. The road has been rough, filled with potholes and breakdowns, but I continue to move on. Some years back I found out that my Mother had breast cancer and in the same year when her immune system was so low from the chemotherapy she was struck by a truck where her lungs collapsed and her pelvis was crushed. She is lucky to be alive. These incidents changed the way that I viewed life as well my life forever. I worked long hours at MAC COSMETICS INC. as a Resident Trainer at the time. Giving my all or at least all that I had left to give. I learned so much from so many people it is not even funny. I taught a lot of artist superior skills that were handed down to me from the veterans of MAC. I can honestly say that I loved going to work each day giving and receiving knowledge. But now it is time to look forward to an even bigger and brighter future. I am thankful that I was allowed to work for a company for 12 years, working with personalities and celebrities that I may not have had the opportunities to be exposed to. But most of all I want to thank my family for making me strong, because without you I would never have made it this far. So I sit here in front of my computer typing this message to all of you explaining where I am today and how I got here...........
