I am an artist, tailor, and costume technician driven by a dedication to craftsmanship and a love of challenge. Having grown up within the arts, I have a range of experience with the stage, from being on it as a professional contemporary dancer, to behind the scenes as a member of the Shakespeare & Company costume shop for nine years. I am currently completing my Costume Technology degree at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts after returning to school to formalize my costume knowledge. I also have an education in traditional bespoke tailoring, having completed the program at The American Bespoke Tailoring Academy in 2022. The projects that gratify and excite me most include classic tailoring but extend beyond into historical draping, complex drafting, and intricate detail work. Outside of the shop, I flex my artistry through crochet, origami, and miniature painting parties with my family. I also enjoy spending time with my devious feline companion, Cassi, and in nature.
