Sasha Rieker- the founder of curvedNdarted- started her life-long passion for sewing 16 years ago as a young girl in Missoula,
Montana. She fell in love with costuming, and earned a BFA in Theatre Design and Technology from the University of Montana.
Sasha has spent the past 9 years sewing and making patterns in costume shops around the Western United States. Her resume
includes the Santa Fe Opera , The Old Globe in San Diego, and the The Magic Theatre in San Francisco. She spent 3 years as the lead cutter/draper (patternmaker) at TheatreWorks on the Penninsula. While at
TheatreWorks, she patterned and managed the construction of more than 200 costumes.
In addition to her work in Theatre, Sasha's work has also been seen in both Effie's Heart and Meli Meli clothing lines. A suit she tailored for Cherrie Jones was pictured in Vogue Magazine, March 2003.
