VS: Tell me about your transition in moving from Myrtle Beach to California and becoming a LimeLight Extraordinaire.

CRD: My transition to California, and especially LimeLight were both very unexpected. Like most college graduates, I felt a little lost when I graduated. I did not have a secure job, and spent the next couple of years bouncing around from job to job in hopes of finding a career. When an opportunity to move to Los Angeles came into the picture, I felt like I had nothing to lose and everything to gain. Moving to California was the easy part, but getting settled proved to be a difficult task. As you can imagine, the job market in LA is fast paced and forever changing, and highly competitive. When a friend approached me about joining LimeLight, it seemed like the ideal fit for me. I have always loved makeup, and had made a little name for myself freelancing makeup for pageants, proms, and weddings.
