This year, #pride has been a new experience. I’ve been fortunate enough to have joined the board at @warnermedia’s NYC chapter for our employee LGBTQ group! Strategizing and hosting events for PRISM members this month has been incredibly rewarding and amazing. I had the humbling opportunity to talk about LGBTQ stories with students at @saysi_sa, my alma mater for a media arts education before college. Last but not least, I was featured at WarnerMedia for an employee spotlight about myself and having pride as a member of the LGBTQ community. I learned more about our community’s history and also shared my story with more people than I ever could have imagined. I was able to celebrate us and try to foster safer spaces for others! • But I also have a confession to make. I’ve spent this whole month at my mom’s in my hometown. As much as I love my parents, I think most people would be surprised to know when I go home, it feels like I’m climbing back into the closet. And I’ve gotta say, it’s a lot harder to deal with than I can put into words. I choose to be as open about my identity in all ways with my friends, my coworkers, strangers, social media, but I can’t be that with my parents, more in particular, my mom. I live without sharing my achievements with the people who made me, raised me, and it makes me sad but also ashamed because I try to advocate for our community to be open and vulnerable with others and I hate that I can’t follow the path completely in all parts of my life. • But! I am still grateful. I have amazing friends, my chosen family, other supportive extended family, and coworkers. I hope one day I get the strength to not only be the good oldest child to my parents, but also to be as close to them as I wish we could be. But until then, I hope to continue to lead by example in the rest of my life and be the person I needed when I was younger. I hope I can be proof to any person out there that longed to see themselves that they too have a wonderful life ahead of them. • Happy #PrideMonth! I love y’all [09:42pm | 06.30.2021] (at San Antonio, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQxKetWFsXy/?utm_medium=tumblr
Today’s the big day!! Come join the live Q&A with the other two filmmakers and myself moderated by two current @saysi_sa media art students! I never thought I’d get to come back in such a way to my alma mater but I’m so excited to do so. • “Skye” was my first short that I wrote and directed. I was given the tools and support for its production by my Say Sí family in 2009 to make a film that even back then felt so taboo, an LGBTQ youth story that felt so close to home for myself. To be able to watch and remember what this film meant to me is going to be emotional but also humbling. I hope join us! • You can screen all three films we’ll be discussing RIGHT now at on Vimeo (link in my bio) and the link to the YouTube livestream will be in @saysi_sa’s bio! • Happy #pridemonth everybody and to all those that have supported me to this day ❤️ [02:46pm | 06.22.2021] (at San Antonio, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQb0id0lYsB/?utm_medium=tumblr
