About
A long-time freelance costumier, I am a newcomer to full-time TV and film work. With experience across short films and theatre, I’m seeking opportunities in the costume department.
I have hands-on experience in costume design, wardrobe supervision, fittings, preparing dressing rooms, and costume construction. Known for my reliability, positivity, and teamwork, I thrive under pressure and am skilled in navigating tight schedules while effectively communicating across departments. I have expertise in alterations, budgeting, continuity, cutting, fitting, making, and managing teams.
This month, I was as Costume Designer and Wardrobe Supervisor for a GMAC short film 'Reconnection'. Last year, I was a Costume Designer on four short films, a Costume Maker on two, and in wardrobe roles on three.
I have four years of experience as a full-time sewing machinist including one year as an assistant manager, and a BA Hons in Costume Interpretation with Design. I have a drivers license and my own car.
