After receiving an MFA from the University of Texas at Austin, Devon began her career in regional theaters before moving to New York in 1998 to assist award-winning designers on Broadway and Off-Broadway. She also assisted designers in television and in opera before designing shows of her own. Devon free-lanced as a costume designer for many years at major regional theaters nationwide including the Guthrie Theatre, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and American Players Theatre, among many others.

As a costume designer, Devon blends artistic vision with practical execution by analyzing scripts and delving deep into historical research to develop a cohesive visual narrative. Devon works to ensure each production she designs balances artistic integrity with budgetary and logistical constraints. She continues to freelance but now dedicates her time to teaching budding costume designers at Binghamton University in upstate New York. Devon is proud to pass along her skills and knowledge to the next generation of story-tellers!
