HOW DID YOU GET YOUR POSITION?
My Production manager at MRT told me I should. So I applied and Spencer [Costume Shop Manager] hired me! Very cool.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE OR FIRST MEMORY OF WTF?
Winning my first game of scrabble and chillin with the carpenters in the rain for four hours.
WHAT ARE YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES THIS SUMMER?
The main thing I am working on this summer is assisting the costume manager. I work on every single show where I can, stitching, crafting, wig maintenance, doling out duties, and inputting all budgets.
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO?
Watching how The Torch-Bearers unfolds in the process. We have a lot of work to do on our biggest show, and I am incredibly impressed with the work put out by the people in this shop already. It will be fantastic to see once the process is completed.
TO WHAT DO YOU ASPIRE?
Many things, but as of now I love costume shop management so I do want to continue to work in that area.
