Joya is a 2015 graduate of the Make Up Forever Academy located in NYC who also holds her B.A. in Theater Arts from Nazareth College. Always passionate about theater, Joya wanted nothing more than to work behind the scenes as a hair and makeup artist, so that is exactly what she sought out to do as soon as she completed school. Currently, Joya is a wig and makeup swing for Aladdin The Musical and Harry Potter and The Cursed Child.
When Joya isn't doing makeup or slinging wings, she enjoys baking pies, listening to podcasts that are all things macabre, and hanging with her greyhound, Niles.
