About me
I began making costumes in 2013, and recently trained at the Northern College of Costume in York. Originally from Melbourne, Australia, I moved to the UK to further develop my skills and pursue a career in costuming. I enjoy collaborating closely with other creatives to produce the best product possible. I have 2 years of professional theatrical dressing experience, but would like to gain more experience in the workroom as a maker and assistant in theatre and film/TV. I have a particular interest in period and fantasy costumes.Referees:
