​
I am a New York based costume designer and multidisciplinary theatre artist. In New York, I have acted as Associate Designer on The Irrepressible Magic of the Tropics and Assistant Designer for Music City, both Off-Broadway. Regionally, I have also been an Assistant Costume Designer at American Players Theatre in Wisconsin.
Prior to my time in the city, I designed over 30 productions across Indiana and Southern Arizona, bringing a passion for research and creativity to every show, transforming characters for the stage. I thrive on both period and contemporary costume design, ensuring authenticity and bringing fresh ideas to life.
In addition to design, I possess strong technical skills in draping, sewing, and garment construction, with awards showcasing my expertise.
​
One of my favorite aspects of costume design is delving deep into research and dramaturgy, both for period shows, as well as things which are a bit more out of the box. I also enjoy scholarship and writing, and have acted in dramaturgical roles, as well as presenting posters with the United States Institute for Theatre Technology.
I hold an MFA in costume design from Purdue University, as well as a B.F.A. in Theatrical Design with an emphasis in Costume Design from the University of Arizona.
