Since I was 10 years old, I have been fascinated with Broadway as a whole and CATS the musical in particular. It has always been a dream of mine to star in CATS, and it was this dream which led to my most recent (and arguably most interesting) hobby, makeup and costuming. The personal craze began less than a year ago, in June 2008, when I began planning for my first CATS costume, and has since evolved into a whole new beast. I am currently working on my third, and perhaps final, CATS costume, with plans to expand out into new and exciting realms of costuming, makeup design, and body painting.
