I created the geeky fashion blog Console to Closet and am an avid cosplayer. I love gaming (which most of my cosplays are inspired by), doing arts and crafts, reading, and designing cosplays. I also love going to conventions and meeting new people at them - look out for me at the conventions listed below!

I'm a new cosplayer - I started April 2011 and have been obsessed since. I make all my costumes by myself, do my own makeup, and build my own props (sometimes with the help of my lovely fiancè, Tyler). As of now, I'm not doing any commissions, but if there is an aspect of my costumes that you'd like to replicate, or want help doing so, please reach out to me and we can talk. I'm constantly trying to improve my cosplay quality, difficulty, and skills - so please feel free to offer any advice or helpful tips over comments or notes.

I'm primarily using DeviantArt to showcase my cosplays - but I might throw in a few of my crafts as well. Feel free to get in touch, ask questions or leave some feedback. I try to do tutorials for each costume and will include links to them on the image descriptions.

I'm always looking for photographers for various cons, so please feel free to reach out if you are an interested photographer. Also, feel free to edit any of my images (you'll probably do a better job than me), but please let me know if you plan on publishing them somewhere on the interwebs. Thanks!
