Hi friends! My name is Samantha Quillen and I’m a GRADUATE of PMTSRI. I earned my Cosmetology License as of 02/07/2020. I attended Caper 2019 back in March and was fortunate enough to meet Debra Dietrich. Lucky enough, she offered to be my personal and professional mentor. Thanks to her I am now a certified Kett Airbrush Makeup Artist. I was also blessed with the opportunity to attend and be a part of the Beacon Class of 2020 where I was able to learn directly from amazing professionals in this industry such as Ammon Carver, Jen and Matt Martinelli, Elizabeth Faye, and Jalia Pettis. Thanks to Matt and Jen Martinelli- I was chosen as a mentee for the day to learn directly under Stephanie Lawrence who is the owner of Blank Canvas Salon in Londonderry, NH. I was able to learn exclusive vivid placement techniques as well as business education from Steph. I’ve also taken numerous advanced education classes outside of my everyday school curriculum and requirements and have a goal of being a traveling educator as well as a Platform and Stage Artist in the coming years. I have never ever felt as motivated as I do at this point in my life. I am inspired daily by my peers and clients and am always searching for new techniques and tricks to use.
