Summary

I am a creative, passionate and enthusiastic individual looking to develop my costuming skills through practical experience. My ambition is to become a costume designer, maker, supervisor or assistant.


I have started my journey by attending the BRIT School, having moved to Streatham from the New Forest at the age of sixteen to maximise this opportunity, after previously studying in London for a week in the summer before my final year in secondary school, learning valuable fashion design skills studying street fashion at the UAL.


At BRIT, I have learned a variety of practical skills, such as digital design, sewing skills and show experience. Moreover, I have learnt how to interpret direction to create costumes that fit the designer's specific vision. Additionally, I have used my driven personality to plan and prioritize workloads to complete tasks within deadlines.
