COSPLAYER FROM USA!

Can you tell us a bit about yourself
and how you got into cosplay..
Well, I run a full time business sewing commissions for people, everything from cosplays to gowns. I keep
busy outside of cosplay with a lot of
interests and hobbies, from running
and working out to spending lots of
time with my golden retriever, Molly!
I love to travel, bike, and try to enjoy
life every day!
I always loved going to the local comic convention each year, and one
year my friends kind of dared me to
wear a female version of the Joker,
since I loved the character so much.
I did it, and fell in love with cosplay! It
was such an easy way to meet people, find people who share the same
interests and fandoms, and I learned
