About me
I am seeking positions in Styling for Wardrobe, Costume design, and Costume PA. During my tenure at the Fashion Institute of Technology, Oscar De La Renta, Martha Stewart Studios, Rent the Runway, various film sets and lastly at my own company I have dedicated years to perfecting my design and styling skills.As a wardrobe stylist and costume designer I am tasked with ensuring actors wardrobe enhances their characters in the best manner possible. As a department head I must insure continuity, legal compliance, proper portrayals, conduct fittings, create and maintain inspiration boards, and act as a liaison between other departments. This must be done in a prompt and organized manner to ensure a production runs efficiently.
Currently I own and operate my own company designing garments, embellishing gowns, painting custom illustrations, and creating home accessories for clients. I am responsible for marketing, contracts, scheduling, designing, illustrating and creating all pieces. As owner and operator, it is my sole responsibility to ensure the utmost customer satisfaction from start to finish.
Previously I worked as a stylist for Rent the Runway where my key position was to dress clients for events ranging from awards shows such as the Oscars or Grammys to weddings and Gala’s. As a personal stylist for Rent the Runway I ranked top 5 in sales dollars for the entire company through strong communication and organizations skills as well as a keen sense of style.
My education background includes a BFA in Fashion Design and an AAS degree in Fashion Merchandising and Management from FIT. During my tenure at FIT I gained an in depth knowledge of the elements of construction, design and illustration. Having specialized in evening wear I learned the art of couture construction and design and was trained by leaders in the fashion industry.
I was a designer for costume competition at Martha Stewart studios where I was a costume designer for Martha Stewart for the Shriek or Chic series. There I had the unique opportunity to work as a designer on film illustrating the unique process of costume design.
I have experience in creative companies such as Oscar De La Renta and Joanna Mastroani, both of which I worked in the design studio. While in the design studio at Oscar De La Renta I was granted the privilege of creating garments, illustrating designs, designing small pieces, fabric shopping and working as a liaison between factories and the studio and working backstage at runway shows.
