Last week I was officially sworn in as a Union Costume Designer for TV/Film/Theater.
I’m very grateful to be apart of an estimated less than 2% of Black Designers to receive this acceptance of which less than 22% are women.
It’s such an amazing moment. All of my hardwork finally paid off. And it’s only upwards & beyond from here for both me and my efforts to positively support & impact creative community ✨
God is Good and God is DELIBERATE (even when it seems it isn’t possibly so). This I’ve come to know for sure…

PS: This is a repost (see photos) so I want to acknowledge the individuals who shared their support & well wishes thus far - many of whom have showed support in some way, shape, or form throughout my personal journey. Truly grateful for it all - big and small.
My mom especially who is the reason I was exposed to fashion design as a child. And some of yall have prayed with me, encouraged me privately, and a very small but special few hired me, platformed me, or were instrumental in helping to create financial opportunities in some way - yall know who you are ❤️✨
