This is a collection of some of the shows that I did in New York. 'Rimers' and 'Translations' were both in my last years of college and 'A Dream Of Wealth' was in NYC. This gives a good sense of my tendency to work toward earthiness and naturalism in design and construction. The pieces for Coppelia reflect the whimsy of the toy maker's workshop. My designs  for Macy's In-store Mrs. Claus represent an idealized grandma of childhood dreams. My design for 'Italian-American Cantos' was totally period driven, allowing the clothes to give voice for a very specific time and place.

Soon after the success of the Mrs. Claus joining Santa in the Thanksgiving Day Parade, Macy's requested an in store Mrs.Claus to accompany Santa in its flagship store. Mrs. Claus has gone on to become part of Santaland tradition.
