ABOUT VERONICA

I am a veteran graphic designer of 19 years, and an up-and-coming costume designer. I am passionate about telling stories through costumes, and love the process of planning a design and crafting it from start to finish. My experience as a graphic designer, working in a fast-paced creative environment, translates well into costume design.

My mom taught me to sew when I was 11, and I fervently sewed a lot of my own clothing through high school. My parents gave me a sewing machine as a high school graduation gift, but my focus was elsewhere for a number of years. I rediscovered my love of sewing a couple years ago while making Halloween costumes for my kids.  

I earned degrees in Graphic Design and Marketing from Penn State in 2000, and have taken a series of costume design and construction classes at University of Colorado.

I currently work as the Assistant to the Costume Production Manager at CU Boulder, and am looking for freelance costume design opportunities.
