Bio:
Before coming to Williston, I worked for many years in professional costume shops across the country including The Long Wharf Theater, Hartford Stage, The Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and Michael Curry Designs. I have had the amazing good fortune to have worked on shows with some of the nation’s top theater artists including several Tony award winners. My work at Williston combines my two passions of teaching and creating.

Education:
B.A., Theater (Acting), Eastern Oregon University; M.F.A., Theater (Costume Design), University of Portland

Professional Interest:
I love tailoring historic menswear and I have a keen interest in upcycling garments into something new.

Fun fact:
When I am not in the costume shop, you will often find me gardening or canning homemade jam.
