Much ado about nothing- Summer/2025

Greenhouse Theatre’s Much Ado About Nothing (Summer 2024) was a modern, minimalist reimagining that I costumed. The men wore denim shorts and tailcoats, while the women appeared in crisp whites — the structured denim echoing the rigidity of the male world, contrasted by the light, airy fabrics of the women.

THE LION WITCH AND THE WARDROBE -Winter/2024

For The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe at Greenhouse Theatre, I designed and built costumes that mixed the everyday with the magical — rough furs, soft wools, and icy details that brought Narnia to life.

a STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE - summer/2024

For A Streetcar Named Desire at Greenhouse Theatre, I designed costumes that felt lived-in and emotional — soft silks, worn cottons, and sweat-stained undershirts that told the story of tension, desire, and decay.

Three penny opera - fall/2023

For The Threepenny Opera, I played with contrast — shiny against worn, proper against crooked — to reflect the messy mix of class, greed, and charm that runs through the story.

Charlottte's web - summer/2024

For Mizzou Theatre’s Charlotte’s Web, I served as head cutter/draper, collaborating with the lead designer to build detailed pieces including goose wing capelets and spider web-inspired sleeves.

9 to 5 - summer/2024

Mizzou Theatre’s 9 to 5 — I worked as head cutter/draper alongside the lead costume designer, building and fitting garments for a large cast.

The Jester 2 - fall/2024

I was the costume designer for The Jester 2, tasked with reimagining the film’s iconic villain. I updated The Jester’s look for the theatrical release, focusing on texture, silhouette, and the eerie balance between performance and horror.
