Makeup Artist, Victoria Stiles’s Honors:

Letter of Reference from 45 North Communications:

"We approached Victoria to do the makeup on a high profile project, one that required diligence, high stress (90+ degree heat, working in the Pentagon) and a high profile A List actor in Gary Sinise. She delivered wonderful results, accepted our challenges of an EARLY morning start, and she performed wonderfully. I would recommend Victoria any day, and will continue to hire her when we are in DC doing more high profile projects."

Top Qualities: Expert, Good Value, High Integrity
