Grace Santamaria is a costume designer born and raised in Kalamazoo, Michigan. In 2018 she graduated from the University of Michigan with a BFA in Theatre Design and Production and a Minor in History of Art. She is experienced in design for theatre, musical theatre, and opera, but is particularly drawn to new works and stories that engage with race, class, and sexuality. Partial to a paperless design process, her workflow is powered entirely by her iPad Pro. She is currently based in Baltimore, Maryland.
