I’m thrilled to have begun my costume design adventure with this amazing company! We are a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit character company based in Cleveland, devoted to spreading joy to kids while supporting community charities and hospitals!
Since 2017, I have taken on the roles of Costume Head and Marketing Consultant at The Fairytale Foundation. My responsibilities include managing costumes, designing new outfits and accessories, maintaining our costume collection, and training our Costume Army. I also create digital promotional materials to raise awareness, attract donors, and highlight our mission and events.
