Born and raised in Minneapolis, I believe in producing quality work, making bold artistic choices, and building strong and compassionate community.
My love for theater started in high school, where I worked on over fifteen productions as a costumer, actor, and co-director.
I studied at the University of Iowa from 2017 to 2021 and have a BA in costume design with a double minor in cinematic arts and African-American history. I worked on costumes in every capacity, culminating in being the lead designer for the mainstage devised work Ascend. The majority of my design credits were world premieres, which has given me an ardent love for collaborating on brand new works.
In the summers of 2023 and 2024 I worked at the Contemporary American Theater Festival in West Virginia, first as an intern and head of wardrobe for the world premiere of Dael Orlandersmith’s Spiritus, and second as a stitcher and head of wardrobe for Harmon Dot Aut’s Tornado Tastes Like Aluminum Sting. Working there gave me the chance to meet a lot of incredibly talented people and work alongside them on developing works- works that continue to be performed on Broadway and elsewhere.
I am always looking for new theaters to collaborate with! Recent credits include: Spellbound (costume designer, Threshold Theatre), Alice in Wonderland, Anastasia (costume designer and mentor, Southwest High School), White Christmas, Grease (wardrobe swing, Chanhassen Dinner Theatres). I also currently work with Nucom as an embroidery machine operator and garment decorator.
