I grew up in a tailor shop down the street from a library and a store that sold art supplies. Ideas came from the library, tools from the store, training from the tailor shop.
I started with the school play in 8th grade and went on to get a BFA in Drama Design (Costumes and Scenery) at Carnegie-Mellon University.
I work as a costumer for film and TV. I continue to study drawing and painting when I can. I am always open to learning a new sewing or painting skill
