Costume Designer & Technician
Welcome to my Mad Stitcher website! Below is a showcase of my diverse costuming projects over the past four years as a undergraduate costume design and technology major at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. You will find my builds reflect my passion for constructing detailed costumes and my passion for creating statement pieces with a bit of whimsy. This mad stitcher has mad skills, too, in constructing patterns, accessories and accent pieces that support the character’s persona and the actor’s performance. In addition, you’ll find examples of my artistry from both personal projects dating back to high school – who doesn’t like plague doctors and witch doctors on Halloween? -- and my costuming work experiences in theatrical productions. I included crew experience, too, because I love working alongside fellow tech theatre artists and performing artists.
Before you decide that you need my gifts and skills in your shop, you should know that I am looking for a place where I can encourage and assist my co-workers in our work and vice versa and where I can help bring solutions to old problems and be creative with new challenges. Feel free to pass on contacting me if your work culture requires me to do too much evaluation or assessment of ideas or plans or where I have rally and inspire people to take action.
