Our Team

Kitty

Kitty has spent around 20 years in the Makeup, Beauty, and Hair industry. She began her career as a makeup artist right after high school, quickly managing big-name brands. After entering the Beauty industry, her passion for skincare grew as she worked with cosmeceutical brands across skin and medical clinics.

Hair styling has always been one of her added skills for various photoshoots and TV programs such as ABC News Breakfast, Dotti, Peter Alexander, Wrangler, and more. Kitty is currently deepening her skills with an apprenticeship in Hairdressing to keep educating herself and to keep up with the team.

Kitty is the Director of Sobo Collective and it is because of her deep love for all things beauty—makeup, skincare, and hair—that led her to develop Sobo Collective.

Kitty is a busy mum of two girls, a crazy book lover and living her life in “organised chaos” at the best of times. The most non makeupy makeup artist around.
