Queer Design Club

I am an illustrator turned freelance web designer/developer who focuses on the WordPress CMS. I love making unique, one-of-a-kind designs.

How does being queer inform your work?

I like to support other queer people as a marginalized group, so I am interested in making connections in which I can further deepen my support. I want to build amazing things for queer people and the community as a whole. I want to consume all of their creations and give them the money they deserve!

What are your favorite pieces of queer visual culture?

This is going to sound incredibly boring but I really enjoy the plethora of Pride flags. I love the visual harmony for color choices representing many of the groups (especially my own flag, the bi pride flag) and the interplay between the color choices as well as the structure of the flags themselves. I love it when a tv show or movie is lit with "bisexual colors" or "transgender colors". I love the way these flags can be utilized to represent something unsaid in media.

Which other queer people inspire you?

I've found myself reading a lot of queer sci-fi writers recently and I honestly can't get enough of it. There's such a unique spin and take on a sci-fi or futuristic universe when queer people are involved to give it a voice.I just recently finished reading:The Echo Wife (Sarah Gailey), Light from Uncommon Stars (Ryka Aoki), and This Is How You Lose The Time War (Amal El-Mohtar & Max Gladstone).
