Jess T. Dugan
I had the pleasure of hearing Jess T. Dugan speak at St. Charles Community College, and talking to her after. Jess reintroduced me to the topic of LGBTQ culture that I was once ignorant too. I'm very grateful for the work that she has produced and shared. Her work is so important/needed and I'm very excited to see where she directs her lens in future work.
On a side note, I was very honored that Jess asked me to take my portrait. The portrait has been scheduled to shoot this March.
