“One must never stop evolving; each new experience shapes who you are and what you can become.”

I am a costume designer/ stylist and have had experience with everything from film to music videos to fashion editorials. I was formally trained in fashion design and have worked at fashion companies, but prefer not to. I find that costuming and styling is more creative and a better way for me to express my skills. I also do leather work and custom builds.
