What got you into cosplay?
Honestly, I’d just gotten out of a really bad relationship and wanted to get out of the house. I went to my very first anime Convention (Central Florida Comic Con 2021) dressed as Kikyo from, ‘Inuyasha’. I had so much fun that I wanted to keep attending shows. It was really cool bringing the character to life.
Are there any models or cosplayers that inspired you?
There wasn’t anyone that specifically inspired me to cosplay, but the people I’ve gotten inspiration from over time are:
