Rosanna Rocha

Rosanna Rocha is an avid cosplayer from Arizona. While she isn’t enjoying the desert weather, she is traveling all over the country to various conventions show casing the remarkable amount of costumes that she has created by hand. With the steadily increased interest in cosplay, Rosanna Rocha welcomes the unorthodox and intends to make her mark on this world.

Cosplay truly began for Rosanna in late 2009 when she created the Batman: Arkham Asylum Harley Quinn for a Halloween costume. Having no experience in sewing it became a hobby she desired to improve her skill in. She decided to take this costume to her first convention, Tucson Comic Con, and discovered a way to incorporate her hobby of sewing into her true self, that which, an individual who appreciated video games, comics, and anime.

Rosanna grew up playing video games with her older brother, reading all his comics, and falling in love with Miyazaki’s films before she knew what “anime” was. This deep seeded love was able to be expressed in a fashion that fused with her new hobby of sewing into what we now know as the world of cosplay at conventions. The addiction grew and now, many years later, there is an entire storage space full of her costumes she has put together through time.

Her pride lies in doing-it-herself while also proudly representing her alternative look and personality. She can be seen at many U.S. conventions all over.

Apart from cosplay she seeks that white-picket fence with the intention of settling down and being a wife and mother one day WITH TEN DOGS running around, and yes, count them, she wants TEN!
