I am a Costume Supervisor and seamstress, based in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire.

I first began working in theatre six years ago as a Wardrobe Mistress, touring with various companies on Number 1 shows. Through this I developed my knowledge of Costume management and gained valuable experience in technical sewing abilities. Due to the nature of the work, I decided to stop touring and concentrate on Supervising and making costumes. Since then I have worked on a variety of projects, all with varying budgets and enjoyed the challenge of making the money available stretch as far as possible, whilst still creating a high standard of work. In these projects I have made, hired and sourced costumes and props, arranged fittings, and overseen all costume requirements to opening night. As you will see, the projects I undertake are across varying genres. Please feel free to visit the following websites to view examples of my work.
