How does being queer inform your work?

Being queer has taught me the importance of seeking out otherwise "invisible" narratives in my own work. When you feel other-ed for so much of your life, you seek to bring yours and others' stories to life, if only to reclaim a bit more of your place in this world.

What are your favorite pieces of queer visual culture?

Definitely Pose, the FX TV show. The whole show is a visual feast.

Which other queer people inspire you?

Rebecca Sugar, Stefanie Beatriz, Adam JK, Janelle Monae the entire cast of Pose, and every queer person who paved the way for us yesterday to allow us to live out loud today.
