Affiliations
I am a Fashion Nova transgender and proud to be transgender; my aim in life is to prove to everyone, and more so to myself, that you can do and be anything you want to be, even if there are certain obstacles in your way. Obstacles are just a distraction or diversion in my eyes, and this makes me more than happy to take that challenge to give me self-confidence in life, even stronger as the person I have grown into today. I work hard at any task put in front of me; my number one confidence is when I can accomplish challenges set before me. I am a very fast learner due to my transgender identity growing up. I’m dependent, reliable, strong-minded, and a confident woman in everything that I do in life.
