About me

I am a multi-faceted designer and technician dedicated to the intersection of fashion, theater, and luxury craftsmanship. With a foundational background in Fashion Design and a specialization in Costume Design, my work is driven by a deep respect for garment history and a forward-looking approach to technical innovation—from exploring bioplastics in costume crafts to mastering the complexities of luxury supply chains.

A Magna Cum Laude graduate of Kent State University, my experience spans the high-energy environments of New York Fashion Week and the meticulous demands of theatrical wardrobe production. I thrive in collaborative settings, whether I am stitching intricate garments for The Wiz, supervising wardrobe for international productions like The Dybbuk, or interning with contemporary labels like Cindy Castro NYC.
