Blog Award Received by Nineveh MakeUp Ministries

I started Nineveh MakeUp Ministries out of my passion for both MakeUp and Writing. I wanted to combine these to create something that would allow me to indulge in my hobbies but also to create a space on the web where people who are interested in cosmetics - consumers, companies, makeup artists, and aspiring makeup artists, could all gather to learn from each other.  One of the pre-requisites for being featured at Nineveh MakeUp Ministries is that the Celebrity (or Celebrated!) Makeup Artist or company must be doing something to give back - to make our world a beautiful place. This usually takes the form of volunteering time, skills, and/or proceeds to a charity, good cause, or individual in need.

I wondered at first if I would be able to get the interviews that I hoped to feature here on the blog. The response from Celebrity MakeUp Artists has actually exceeded my expectations, and so far, I've been able to bring you features on amazing artists such as Debra Macki, Ramy Gafni, Mario Dedivanovic, Leora Edut, and Pamela Barrios, and others are lined up to be featured as I type this to you.

Nineveh Makeup Ministries is already beginning to serve it's purpose, and this makes me smile. :)

7 Things About Me

1.) I once got in trouble in grade school for going to school with too much makeup on (Grade 4).

2.) I am first generation American on my father's side. He and his parents immigrated from Italy.
3.) I knew I would move to California ever since I was a little girl. When I turned 18, I packed it up from New England and made the trek over here. By myself.
4.) In highschool, I was a Human Biology buff and considered a career in medicine.

5.) My love for makeup and writing has allowed me to connect with so many people from different backgrounds and walks of life.

6.) I love to cook foods from many cultures.

7.) I'm a Pisces. :)
