Where are you from?
I was born and raised in Syracuse, New York.
How long have you been cosplaying?
I made my first costume in 2007.
What first got you interested in cosplay?
I've always liked dressing up for Halloween and once I learned that people dress up for conventions I felt drawn in 2007.
What are some characters you have cosplayed?
I've done Nightwing, Robin, Gotham City Police Officer, and a Ghostbuster.
Working on anything now?
I want to do a new Nightwing costume doing more hands-on processes rather than buying pre-fabricated items like vests and all.
Which cosplay took you the longest / most effort to put together?
I would have to say that the Robin took the longest because of how long it took to paint the vest and I had to out source the cape because I lack the skills for sewing.
Favorite movie? Video game? TV show? Band?
My favorite movie is Ghostbusters 2. I don't really have a favorite video game. Titans is my favorite show that's currently running and my favorite band is Linkin Park.
What are some of your other hobbies outside of cosplay?
I play Magic the Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, read and collect comic books and action figures and I'm a paranormal investigator.
What kind of decks do you have for MTG & Yu-Gi-Oh?
In Magic I primarily run a Vampire deck and in Yu-Gi-Oh I usually main a spellcaster deck with a focus on the Dark Magician.
What are some of the conventions that you have attended? What's the furthest one away you've ever been to?
I've been to a very small local con in Baldwinsville, Salt City Comic Con in Syracuse, Flower City Comic Con in Rochester, Nickel City Comic Con in Buffalo, and Niagara Falls Comic Con in Niagara Falls Canada. Niagara Falls has been the farthest one I've been to and I usually make it a weekend trip of it.
