I am a professional costumer with 22 years experience.  My background is in theatre, starting with a BFA in Design and Technical Direction from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.  I have worked as the chief costume designer, costume shop head, milliner (hatmaker), dyer and other positions for various theaters back and forth across the USA.  I have designed and built costumes for an Off-Broadway production entitled "Dubious Oysters, Questionable Pearls".   All of these jobs led me to work as the wardrobe mistress on the SS Norway cruise ship, where I met my husband. My wandering days were over and we settled in Florida to raise a family.
In Florida, I worked at a "normal" job in an office until I gave birth to my first child.  I incorporated my seamstress business and threw myself into it full time so I could stay at home with my new baby, Eleanora.  How silly I was to think I would now have time to devote myself to the business fully! After not sleeping for about 2 years, the business began to establish itself… and I became pregnant again with my second child, Daniel.  Eleanora is now seven years old and Daniel is four.
My business, Lassalle Designs, Inc. is keeping me pretty busy now.  I have made a good foothold into the Celebrity Impersonator community and now also offer custom wedding gowns. I am constantly expanding my bank of skills to increase the services I offer. I enjoy helping people to realize their projects.  It is exciting to take a sketch of an outfit and make it come alive.
I also work as the seamstress on set for several production companies, shooting film, television and commercials.  Some of the commercials I have worked on have starred San Marino, Tony Stewart and Papa John (of Papa John’s Pizza).
My family includes my husband Christian and our children Eleanora and Daniel.  We have three cats, a fish won at a birthday party and a weaver spider in our front shrubbery.  My hobbies include reading, gardening and keeping an eye on the weaver spider.

I am very excited to be a part of this group. I feel like I have become a member of a new family.

I was born in New York City, and at the age of 10, my family and I moved to Israel to a place called Kibbutz Alonim, which is where my family on my father’s side lives.

Before the Army, I traveled throughout Greece, in the islands, Athens, Crete, Rhodes and climbed mount Olympus. I served in the Israeli Army for 2 years as a Military Police and then in a security division in the North of Israel.

In 1995, I took an 8 month backpacking trip to Asia where I traveled in places such as: Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia, where I climbed volcanoes, rode elephants and trekked in rain forests. In 1997, my husband, Danny, and I got married and moved to New York where I studied for my BA in Art. In 2001, we moved to Orlando, Florida after I gave birth to my daughter, Kayleigh. My husband and I opened a moving company and closed it when we moved to South Florida in 2006. It was then we founded Angel Locksmith, Inc. and in 2007 my son, Yonatan, was born.

I am the Co-Owner of Angel Locksmith and I also work as the Marketing Executive for 911 Restoration, Inc.

My goal is to get more involved in the community, while meeting all of you and making new friends.
