Don't let this freelance make-up artist's wholesome southern appearance fool you—her makeup effects, sharp tongue and sick sense of humor show she also has a dark side. She was first drawn to the make-up world by the fantasy movies she watched as a child.

Heather has done makeup for various television shows including Prison Break and Chase, but her passion is

in fantastic creature effects. She particularly likes the creativity and problem solving aspects of effects.

Heather was a contestant on the SyFy hit series Face Off. She will be performing make-up demonstrations throughout the weekend at her booth.

"I've been addicted ever since. When I found out that William Shatner was coming to town, one of my father's idols, I decided that I would write an article

about it in the school newspaper and take my father. He loved it! After covering a few conventions for the school I decided I wanted to do it for myself because I can't be in school forever."

Krystle teamed up with Adam Samaz and together they created Samaze.com, a website devoted to entertainment. That was more than four years ago. They cover most conventions in Texas. Aside from the creativity, games, merchandise, celebrities, contests and all-around nerdiness that can be found at all good conventions, the one thing that keeps them going are the friendships they have made over the years. "You couldn't ask for a better group of people devoted to the culture we love and support."
