She got to meet and work with some exceptional designers, such as Christian Lacroix and Alexander McQueen, while participating as a makeup artist in some of the most prestigious fashion shows of that time. She travelled extensively around the world as a makeup artist during this time.
In 2003, she took a break to focus on her artistic projects of photography and painting. This is also the year that she met the actress, Jeanne Balibar; together they created a new photographic universe that still exists today.

In 2019, she began her new artistic journey of blending her photographic and makeup artistry. Experimenting with these two mediums that she had already been working with for many years, she started creating colorful close-ups on various canvases such as paper, fabric, vegetation, and skin.
The confinement of 2020 provided her with the time and space to fully immerse herself in this new journey. Finding her rhythm and beginning to draw was a revelation for her. During this period, she poured all her positive energy into her work, allowing the knowledge she had accumulated from her past professions to flow into the colors she mixed and her deep connection with nature to create the art she now works on. It brought her pure happiness.
