In 1981 she joined the Alliance Theatre and has worked as the Costume Shop Manager for 30 seasons. She has costumed over 300 productions including, pre Broadway shows (Last Night of Ballyhoo, Aida, The Color Purple, Sister Act), national tours (Noise/Funk, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee) world premieres, large-scale musicals, period and contemporary shows, comedies, dramas, and children's shows.
