Last year, I had the great honor of receiving an award for my Doctor Strange cosplay at the New York Comic Con Eastern Championships of Cosplay. This year, I had the great excitement of participating with SINGER in awarding the top 3 champions.

In its effort to better align the 100+ year old company with the spirit and enthusiasm of cosplay, SINGER sponsored the 2017 NYCC Eastern Championships of Cosplay. As Singer's Brand Ambassador, and I interviewed the contestants backstage as they were individually judges by this year's panel of esteemed judges.
