I hope that through my art and performance, I can inspire creators to include and accurately portray transgender characters and scenarios in their work. I wish to paint my community in the most accurate colors: flaws, successes, and all. To remind the world that no matter how different people may seem, that difference does not take away from the fact that we are still people.
Artist Statement
Similarly, but not any less, I aspire to play those that would be considered “strange” or “unconventional” characters. I’ve always had a curiosity about the odd and uncanny. I enjoy the time taken to create and figure these characters out, and I will always strive for them to get the appreciation they deserve.
