My creative background has many different elements, from a BFA in Fashion Design, to surface and textile design and finally, costume design experience. I just received my BFA in Fashion Design and Product Development.
Within this environment I have experience in patternmaking/draping, creating original designs, working on the technical side of fashion, market research, and much more. Within the scope of my BFA, I also learned to create surface pattern designs working with physical fabric and creating designs using programs like illustrator/photoshop.
Finally, I also have experience in costume design. My work in costume design extends from reading scripts in order to design costumes, to creating original costume designs, to working behind the scenes as an Assistant Costume Designer in a theatre production.
