Summary
With a strong background in Fashion Design and dressmaking, I operated my own business in Kazakhstan and New Zealand. I contributed to the clothes design team for the Golden Globe Award-winning movie “The Power of the Dog” and several series such as “Dancing with the Stars,” “Jonah,” and “Cowboy Bebop” on Netflix. Having completed my studies in Film and Content Creation at South Seas Film School, I am enthusiastic about integrating my Fashion Design and film skills to explore new opportunities. I recently served as head of costume and wardrobe for the short film "6 Concertos" starring John Leigh and directed by Peter McCully.
