“I felt my creativity was not expressed. I liked to be a kindergarten teacher, but I wasn't happy”, she said. "I needed a new challenge".

In the spare time after work, Mimi would practice various makeup techniques.

"I have always been creative and I have made brides in the past, and people really liked it", she said. "I wanted to do something different fot halloween, so I looked on Instagram and found a picture of a woman who seemed to be cracked".
