"As a trans woman of color, I'm passionate about style that empowers & represents my community, while using my clinic to bring hope & health
What makes your style stand out?
My style stands out because it’s a reflection of strength, authenticity, and transformation. Every look I create tells a story — one of resilience, confidence, and self-love. I blend elegance with boldness, using fashion not just to express myself but to inspire others to embrace who they truly are.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment is creating a runway show that merges fashion with activism — featuring trans and gender-diverse models, designers, and artists. I’d love to use that platform to highlight inclusivity, body positivity, and representation, proving that fashion is for everyone.
What would you do with $20,000?
If I won $20,000, I would invest it into the ETSI Health Clinic HIV Prevention Program, which supports and empowers people living with HIV. This funding would help expand testing, education, and outreach services in underserved communities. My goal is to help people not just survive — but thrive with dignity, awareness, and hope.
