Cookie-cutter fashion tends to miss the mark on those who live on the outer fringes of “normal” society. Our spirits need space to thrive and be seen for who we are and our evolution. I have tailored fashions for all body types, personalities, and fashion genres. My extensive creative and technical expertise has kept me in business for decades. My career has largely focused on theatre, music, and
film. I started sewing at the age of 8 and by 11 I was doing costume construction for theater and dance repertory groups. Throughout my career, I have provided a variety of production services in the local community theater and have costumed everything from comedies to tragedies. Also, I have provided local wardrobe support to concert circuits that included bands like Aerosmith, Rolling Stones, The Celtic Sisters, Weird Al, and Ozzy Osbourne. In film, I have worked in productions for Journey Quest and Infested. [Links if possible]
Over the last 25 years, I have lived and worked in the Pacific Northwest. I am a co-owner of the Productivity Parlor for Artful Living, a sewing business that specializes in custom fashion, tailoring, and classes. I manage our little shop in the Theatre District in downtown Tacoma, WA. For those who love fashion or want to be fashionable, your style symbolizes your identity.

I will walk you through the creative process that brings clarity to your personal style. The result is unique pieces designed and tailored to fit you. Your fabulous frocks await you!
