I started my sewing career 4 years ago as a stitcher, and now I have blossomed into a designer and construction aid. In 2023 I was the head costumer’s second in command to design a production of Gershwin’s “Crazy For You”. This production really pushed me to get out of my comfort zone and trust my designer instincts. I learned how color matches work with skin tones, and the importance of checking to make sure that the costumes are designed in a way that the dancers won’t have to worry about movement restriction. In 2024 I was promoted to head costume designer. While in this position I learned how to keep an organized workspace and effectively communicate visions to a team of stitchers and Directors. Some of the shows I designed includes; “Legally Blonde: The Musical”, “Beauty and the Beast”, “Frankenstein”, and “Annie”. I was nominated for Best Costume Design at The Betty Buckley awards in 2024 for my work on “Beauty and the Beast” while I was head costume designer. I was nominated for Best Costume Design at the Betty Buckley Awards and Broadway Dallas High School Musical Theater Awards for my work on “Crazy For You” while I was second in command.
