What got you into cosplay?
I've always loved theatre and costumes....plus I love anime and video games...cosplay combines both of them.
What was your first costume and why?
Shiva from FFX; She is beautiful and powerful...who wouldn't want to be her?
What is your favorite costume and why?
I have to say Siren since its cute and fun to wear, but yet its a hardcore summon. Parts of the costume is in the landfill now since the harp broke in half and half the head wings flew out the back of the truck coming home from AX 07. It was time to retire it.
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
Ultima from FFXII was my dream was my dream cosplay, but I would love to make one of my own characters...my version of Emerald.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
My husband painting my body for two hours and me getting fiesty...lol...he really wanted me to look perfect and I was in a hurry to get out of the bathroom! :)
Do you participate in masquerades?
