I’m a costume/prop-maker and charity cosplayer living in Manhattan, Kansas. I pattern and sew costumes from scratch, 3D print and paint armor and accessories, and do makeup and latex work. Sometimes I do buy components for my costume builds or an entire costume.
I love to use cosplay to create moments of real and spontaneous joy for people, especially for charities and hospitals. I’ve been a member of the Just-Us League for a couple years as their Spider-Man and Robin. I’m also seeking official membership in the Mandalorian Mercs, a Star Wars costume club specifically for Mandalorians. Through these groups I get to provide free costumed entertainment for people, especially kids and their families, dealing with major struggles. Being able to bring joy and help them step outside of their situation for just a moment is such an honor and gives my hobby real meaning.
