Academy of Art University takes this opportunity to honor our female faculty members in this Female Leaders in Art and Design video series. For the first episode, we present Alina Bokovikova.

Costume Design Coordinator for the School of Fashion. Freelance Costume Designer for theater and opera. Mother of three. These are just some of the ways to describe Alina Bokovikova.

In this video, she recounts the time she got started in the costume design industry. “When I first started my career I found out that the costume design are is not equally supported, which is sad because most costume designers are women.”

Get to know her more as we give you the very first installment of our Female Leaders in Art and Design video series.

We have more insights and wisdom from our female faculty members, so keep an eye out for that!
