Hello, my name is Hayley Jo Leibl, and I am a fashion designer with an emphasis in costume design graduating from Otis College of Art and Design in May 2020! I've developed my background by participating in three AFI graduate student films while at Otis as costume designer and on-set team. I also participated in events like the Rachel Zoe and Otis fashion shows. My interest in sewing grew from an interest in cosplay, for which I've worked with professionals in the video game industry, such as Hironobu Sakaguchi. I'm proficient in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, and I design, illustrate, flat, pattern, and sew my designs. I'm incredibly interested in telling stories, and in communicating through clothing, as I believe it's a second language we are all unknowingly fluent in. I love to collaborate in telling stories of all kinds, and have a deep interest in all forms of media and pop culture!
