1. Best costume that you pulled off that you thought you could not.

What were some of the reactions that you got on it? My best cosplay would have to be my first major one which was Karma from League of Legends. I really loved the character and didn’t think I would do her justice at all. I wore the outfit at Otakon and I got a huge positive response from it that were fans of the character since she is hardly cosplayed. It even made it to the League of Legends Summoners Showcase which is a super huge honor.

2. What’s do you find great about anime cosplay?

I love the work and dedication people put into it to make it their own. Bringing some of my favorite characters to life before my very eyes is inspiring.

3. Any character you want to do but is just impossible right now?

I would love to do Seth Balmore from Lost Odyssey. I would also love to do Mythic Cassiopia from League of Legends.

4. How have you over come your disability in cosplaying?

I just take my time and keep pushing but I don’t put my cosplaying over my health. It’s not an easy task I tell you that but I find a way to over come it with time and patience. I just have to remember not to think of it as a disability but something that slows me down when it comes to progress. If I work too hard I will start to hurt so never do I put a cosplay before my health. I’ve honestly learned to live with it for years and it hasn’t stopped me yet.

5. Of course the hot topic is sexual harassment and cosplay. Any advice for WOMEN that may read this?

No matter the comments and bashing you might receive always stand tall and have confidence. Don’t like anyone negativity and crude nature get to you. And this doesn’t just fall to women but men too. I’ve seen and talked to guys who’s been harassed at conventions as well.
