Crafty Sorceress

Passionate about empowering people to craft, make and build, I'm an award-winning master-level cosplayer and professor. With 10+ years of cosplaying and costume building, I enjoy sharing the love of craft and helping others in their cosplays.

I got my Ph.D researching, desgining and making a technology to help designers, hobbyists and cosplayers find materials online. Along the way, I became a costume shop assistant, costume builder, cosplayer and educator. That sprung me to being a maker professor, and a multimedia cosplayer, specializing in drafting, craftsmanship and electronics.

Awards I have won included Best Recreation, 1st place masters division craftsmanship, Best Cosplay/Prop from Make Media, and more recently, their Amazing Maker Award finalist. I'm excited for opportunities in the User Experience Researcher and Maker domains!
