CRYSTAL JURADO

SFX Make-Up Artist

PROFILE


No matter the job, taking pride in my work is integral. From the smallest gig to the largest, each carries the same weight and care.

 Several lucky opportunities presented themselves early in my career, and I do believe my all-or-nothing attitude has served me well.

 I am dedicated & detailed, with a real love for what I’m doing. That fact that I am able to work in this field fills me with so much gratitude.
