"I'm Lily 'Beets' Barlow, a graduate from Douglas Education Center. During my time at Douglas Education Center, I was able to dual-track the Tom Savini's special makeup effects, taking both animatronics and fashion and performance. I was drawn to special effects because it uses multiple different art mediums, tools, and techniques. I like to say I'm a hobby hoarder and that I'm always looking for new skills to learn. I just love the challenge and puzzle of figuring out how to bring whatever props, makeup, characters, and costumes to life!"
