Paradox CosplayI was just a normal girl in Puerto Rico minding her own business; doing modeling, surfing, selling art and mentoring students afterschool, until I met my now best friend, Jeinellys.
She got me involved in this amazing world of videogames, manga/ anime, fanarts and cosplay. After joining the U.S. Army and getting settled in San Antonio, Texas I came across this incredible cosplay community in which I've been able to make such great friendships, spread my love for cosplay to others and grow more as a cosplayer! In that same manner I got my husband, Claude Xavier (cx.cosplay) involved in this cosplay world that he now loves and enjoys so much too! As far as cosplay goes I'm always looking to expand my reach and awareness for love and equality in the community, learn new ways to build, craft and create for the sake of cosplay, and polish my photography/ editing skills. I hope I can make a difference in the world through my cosplay / photography by bringing people together and showing them that life can be so much more fun if we enjoy what we do, respect others and love ourselves more. You can find me on Instagram as: Cosplay @paradoxcosplay Photography @ynot.photography |
