About

My name is Tyler Banks, I am currently a first year graduate student at the University of Missouri in Kansas City. I recently completed my undergraduate degree at Weber State University in Ogden Utah where I obtained my Bachelors in theatre arts with an emphasis in cosutme design. 

In the theater world, I enjoy the collaboration between the various technical elements, and have dabbled in each one individually  Working as a team to turn the text to into visual imagery is always an exciting challenge that fuels my passion for design, specifically costume design.

​

Through my work and studies with Weber State University, Utah Shakespeare Festival, Utah Festival Opera and Musical Theater Company, and Western Wyoming Community College, I have gained hands on experience in the worlds of costume design, construction, and maintenance. These facilities also exposed me to wardrobe management and wardrobe services.

​

My skills include machine sewing with both domestic and industrial sewing machines, hand sewing  basic millinery, flat patterning, cutting, and draping. I have work experience as the costume designer, assistant designer, first hand, stitcher, wardrobe manager, and wardrobe crew member.

​

I pride myself on my ability to bring a positive attitude into the work place daily. I manage stress very well and I am very focused when it comes to my work in the costume industry. I know how to put my full effort into what I am doing and how to keep my social life from interfering with it.
