Chicago engineer, 26, quits corporate job to become seamstress at Yellowstone

Zoe De La Paz, a 26-year-old engineer, left her corporate job in Chicago to work as a seamstress at Yellowstone National Park, earning $19.25 an hour. She transformed a hobby she had since high school into a professional pursuit after gaining backstage experience at music venues. Her current role involves repairing uniforms for park staff at Yellowstone. De La Paz sees the position as a stepping stone toward her ultimate goal of working in costume departments for Broadway productions and films in New York City.
