Lupe de Santiago: Seamstress

As a seamstress at Disneyland Resort, Lupe de Santiago views her work as a passion rather than a job. Lupe fulfills her dream of working at the park by crafting and maintaining all of the costumes for attractions like It's a Small World and The Haunted Mansion. As a little girl, Lupe was inspired by the incredible design of Walt Disney's original creations, and for the last 30 years Lupe has held herself to a standard of perfection as she strives to preserve the legacy of Disneyland Resort's iconic troupe of seamstresses.
