Personal Statement
Why do I do what I do?
I’m not interested in just consuming culture, I want to create the culture that speaks to me.
I grew up constantly being told that there would be no space for me.
I've been able to prove all of that wrong.
I grew up on Sailor Moon, Lucille Ball, and Margaret Cho. But it was only after seeing people such as Wong Fu, Jubilee Project, Natalie Tran, and Lilly Singh on YouTube that I was inspired to pursue entertainment. Seeing them do well gave me the audacity to think that I could be somebody.
My hope is to inspire other queer Asian American geeks or anyone in marginalized communities to believe that their voices matter.
Never settle for the status quo.
