My first WonderCon is in the books and it was a lovely experience. I was able to meet some cool creatives and some very talented artists. There were attendees from over 20 countries at this con at the Anaheim Convention Center. I was able to complete a couple on site interviews for the cosplay alliance youtube channel. I met @caoimhe in person who was the first black cosplayer to have 1 million followers on TikTok. […]

This was my second time attending Emerald City Comic Con and it was another blast. I attended on behalf of Cosplay Alliance as an interviewer. I didn’t realize my favorite artist was attending, Marcus the visual who is on IG @marcusthevisual. I was actually wearing his version of a genderbend Rogue cosplay from X-Men that he drew during his annual Swaptober series. He gladly obliged to be interviewed and of course I did the interview in […]

I was extremely happy because my photoshop skills sucked when I first started out and it […]

Dragon Con is back! It has been three years since Ugo and I attended Dragon Con. Before the pandemic Dragon Con 2020 was my most anticipated convention. I was becoming the fittest I’ve ever been for it. Atlanta is home for me as I was born and raised there but I hadn’t been home since 2020 so I was anxious about it.

Emerald City is the first west coast convention I’ve attended and it did not disappoint. It was only my second comic con since the end of 2019. It was cool because it was as laid back as you wanted it to be or as up-tempo as you wanted. This convention gave me the opportunity to meet so many cosplayers that I normally don’t see because I don’t travel to west coast conventions. I was able […]
