my love of fashion evolved from childhood dress-up and my ever growing inspiration of theatre costuming to cosplay. my involvement in performance art has continued my interest in creating one of a kind wearable art and fashion pieces. i use upcycled fabrics and incorporate many found objects into accessories and head pieces. i utilize many crafts for costume design; techniques from macrame, wire wrapping, leather working, beadwork, paper mache, embroidery, and sewing all come together to create these larger, unique wearables.
