a month and two weeks ago, i was contacted by the organizers at Dream Con to host the gaming tournaments

i immediately went into preparation mode and scheduled a photo session with Winston Zhou Photography, a braiding session with https://www.instagram.com/beautyroomva, and a mani with Yournailplugx Handcrafted Press On Nails

the way they all quickly came together to help me prep for this shoot, which was literally done the DAY BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY and scheduled in less than 2 weeks 🤯

even though people only see me (and PlayStation lmao) in these pictures, there is an entire team of people behind me cheering me on and working with me to move me forward

i'm so thankful for them and people like Denkles - https://www.denkles.com & Gemma - https://gemmaanderson.com who have worked to make a [REDACTED PROJECT] which i'm excited to showcase next week AND at the event itself !!

i've spent so much time focusing on this exact future; i want to just live in the now for a bit 🥰
