Makeup Artist TED 2013

Hey Everyone!

I just had the life changing  opportunity to be one of the makeup artists & hairstylists for TED2013: The Young. The Wise. The Undiscovered. I’ve had many amazing opportunities in my life because of my career (which I am so incredibly thankful for), but this one could very possibly top them all.

For the past five days I had the distinct pleasure of prepping some of the brightest minds in the world to take the stage at TED2013 that took place in Long Beach, CA. For those of you who don’t know about TED Conferences (which stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design), they are conferences in which remarkable people from many different fields give riveting talks in front of large audiences of other remarkable people. The ideas behind the conferences are that the talks are about, “ideas worth spreading.” Videos of each individual talk are then released online for everyone to view- they are so educational and inspiring. If you’ve never watched any of them I HIGHLY recommend you take a look at their site TED.com and watch a few videos- there is something for everyone there.

Having the opportunity to meet these brilliant individuals who are changing the world through their craft was so incredibly inspiring- it really is tough to put into words. I have been an avid fan of TED and watch TED talks all the time- to be a part of it was so special to me and will be something that I never forget. To be a small part of a conference that moves ideas forward and betters mankind is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done- I can’t stop smiling about it and hope to be a part of it next year.

I want to thank everyone that I had the opportunity to meet and work with at TED. Everyone was so nice and easy to work with. I also want to thank my partner in crime who did hair & makeup with me- Nicoletta Daskalakis. More to come once I collect my thoughts- my mind is still spinning at what I just witnessed!

Stay Gorgeous!
