Growing up in Portland, I did not know I could make a career doing what I love. It's been a lot of hustle from the ground up, mixed in with a little magic of finding good people along the way that believe in you. A helping hand in this business goes a long way. I found purpose and priceless tools in LA. I worked with the top directors, producers, writers and actors in the biz while receiving some humble accolades myself. 

Creation gets me excited. I get goosebumps when the actor smiles in the mirror and we both know. I get a rush reading a wacky wardrobe note in the script that others might see as un-doable. I am proud of my assistants thriving without me cuz I know I am responsible. I relish in a tight budget and challenge of making lewks appear more expensive. And when a friend of a friend without means needs to look and feel great for an event, It's like a superpower to make that happen and probably the most fulfilling.

So, whether I am making a family of 4 look real and relatable while selling cereal, or building a "homemade" looking Transformer costume out of cardboard and tape, or giving 3 twenty-something gal pals different aspirational styles while organically looking like friends....

I get excited to dig in and become an integral part of a team of storytellers.
