about the artist
Ashley is a Professional Makeup Artist, SPFX Artist and Makeup Instructor working within the SoCal area, including LA, OC and the SFV.
Her journey began in 2012 with a small course to help her in her own daily makeup routine, it was this spark of knowledge that would ignite her passion for the field. No longer was makeup a daily routine, but an artform. Always ambitious, Ashley began taking night classes after work at professional makeup school in Hollywood, training and studying vigorously to reach her goal of graduating in 2015.
Post-graduation Ashley would go on to do makeup work on music videos for artists such as Doje, Emmure, and Future Feats. Her makeup work has been featured in prestigious publications such as Vogue, Rival and Elegant Magazine. During this time Ashley worked at two different salons in Brentwood and Beverly Hills as their Lead Makeup Artist.
In 2019 Ashley began work as a Makeup Instructor at the distinguished Theater of Arts in Hollywood. Her hard work and determination led to gaining the faith of those in the industry and adding another notch to her makeup journey. Not only was she working in the field that she was passionate about, she was now passing her professional beauty knowledge on to up and coming actors and models in the industry.
In 2020 the world was changed by the global pandemic COVID-19. Ashley, always the resilient one, decided to virtually teach makeup to actors, private clients and students of the craft via Zoom. Since then she has kept up with her health and safety certifications and has recently began taking on clients in person again.
While 2020 was a difficult year, Ashley used the time to work on her craft and hone her skills.
Currently, in 2022, Ashley is back on set at full capacity, working within the Film and TV Industry.
