1) Tell us a little bit about yourself, your hobbies and background.
I graduated from college in December 2004 and just started working as an Actuary. I like to run and my goal is to complete a marathon in the next couple of years.
2) How long have you been costuming? What kinds of experiences have you had?
I got started in costuming in high school when I made a mermaid costume for Halloween. The metal bikini was my first Star Wars costume, but I hope to make some others for future conventions.
3) What's your earliest memory of seeing Return of the Jedi?
I remember watching Return of the Jedi with my big sister when I was little. I remember thinking the Ewoks were really cute.
4) When did you get your first "metal bikini" and what drove you to it?
I made my first metal bikini for Celebration III. I figured it would be the most fun and my boyfriend of course loved the idea....
5) What is your favorite memory of appearing as Slave Leia?
The group photo at Celebration III. The girls were a lot of fun and we drew quite a crowd!
Thanks Karen!
