About me
Over the last couple of years I’ve had the opportunity to work on some great independent shows and films, which has not only helped me to grow as a costume designer, but taught me about time-sensitivity, hierarchy, keeping under budget and the importance of teamwork.With this experience I was able to hone my creative eye while collaborating ideas with others, while also staying on budget without any sacrifice to overall aesthetic. I have become familiar with wardrobe houses, and have the ability to locate mundane to obscure items. I work well under pressure, I’m organized and can meet deadlines, and I have knowledge of the production process, including technical aspects such as lighting and sound, and how it can affect costume choices.
I believe I will be a valuable addition to your team, and I look forward to gaining even more experience and knowledge with the opportunities your show will provide.
