There are so many opportunities in the workforce for people with all kinds of talents and skills. This month, we chatted with three rockstars at BuzzFeed Life with varying jobs to learn a little more about what makes them tick.

Name: Augusta Falletta

 

Position: Beauty Editor

 

What does your job entail at BuzzFeed Life?: My primary focus is writing hair and beauty-related stories, but every now and then I’ll write an article about health or dating or something else that falls under the umbrella of helping our readers *~live their best life.~* The other big part of my job is producing photo and video shoots (with Lauren, our baller photographer) for original beauty tutorials. Prepping for shoots means booking hairstylists, makeup artists, models, and any other kind of expert who may be able to share their knowledge with our readers. Post-shoot means figuring out graphics with our Design department and putting every piece of the puzzle together so that we end up with an article that serves its purpose in an interesting way. At the end of the day, my job is working together with insanely creative and kind people to make awesome stuff for the internet.

 

My favorite emoji is…the one that I always need but never have: Taco.

 

I don’t think I will ever…own a car again. As much of a headache as the subway is sometimes, the thought of driving and parking in New York City makes me sweat in a lot of weird places.

 

My most recent splurge was…plane tickets to Turkey and Greece!
