Talent.
As a destination beauty creative director, I work with bold visionaries, rule breakers, and style-setters ready to explore their next evolution. This isn’t just makeup and hair—it’s identity alchemy. I blend pigment, texture, and intent to create looks that feel editorial, effortless, and entirely personal. With a background in celebrity, fashion, and high-profile weddings, I translate your inspiration and instincts into a living, breathing expression of self—one that lingers in photos, memories, and every jaw-dropped reaction.
Beauty that looks like you—at your most iconic.

"I REALLY dig you, sister! You have such an incredibly warm and nurturing energy that is exactly what is needed onsite. Your level of calm and warmth- your humor and ability to just get it, is a refreshing and welcomed experience. We will be booking the HELL outta you for so many reasons: talent, badass bitchery, team mindset…so many more things.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart for all that you brought to this weekend.

From a wedding planner in an email to Shani after a five day 2024 wedding weekend-
"You were my beauty expert, my friend, therapist, hype woman, and shoulder to lean on (literally and figuratively). Having you with me for all of my wedding weekend events was like having a safe space to go to before and during each event. You also kept me laughing and reminded me to stay in the moment. AND I HAVE NEVER FELT MORE BEAUTIFUL, CONFIDENT, SEXY, ALL THE THINGS! You were essential!"
