About Rachael

Hi! I'm Rachael. I am currently the Costume Shop Manager at Bridgewater State University. I also design several of the shows for the Theatre Department, run the Wardrobe crews, and coordinate the costumes for the Dance Department productions.

 

From a young age, I knew that I wanted a career that would allow me to express my creativity. Costumes became a hobby around 1st grade, one that slowly and steadily grew into a passion that I chose to pursue both academically and professionally. I received an MFA in Costume Design and a Certificate in Teaching for Higher Education from Temple University. My BFA in Theater Design and Technology from Emerson College.

​

In my career so far I've not only had the opportunity to work on multiple theatrical productions (including THREE world premieres!), but also have had the experience working on live events, a webseries, a Bollywood music video, student film projects, and to be a wardrobe PA on a movie set. I even designed my own wedding dress and my partner's tuxedo. I have also worked professionally as a scenic painter for staged productions as well as industry shows.
