Sascha is regularly sought out to collaborate; having worked with some of the best talent across the Australian creative spectrum - from photographers (Jesse Lizotte, Georges Antoni, Kane Skennar, Mishy Tran, Bruna Volpi, Libby Willis, Tasha Tylee, Callie Marshall), to stylists (Jillian Davison, Sarah Birchley), makeup artists (Sarah Laidlaw, Penny Antuar, Victoria Baron), hair stylists (Peter Gray), and models and celebrities (Cat McNeil, Billie Eilish).

In 2016, Sascha was a successful applicant (top 3% globally) for the ground-breaking online program, ‘Mastered’ for the inaugural ‘Nails Mastered: Creativity’ and was mentored by internationally acclaimed nail artist and legendary originator of ‘nail sessions’ work, Marian Newman. This intensive instruction culminated in an influx of manicure session work, including the Billie Eilish cover and feature for Vogue Australia in 2019.
