From an early age my imagination has led its own path. The imaginations from turning a simple window into a fast food drive through, to turning my bed sheets into a red carpet moment created by Givenchy or Louis Vuitton. My mind would ignite whether with a group of friends, or in the quiet solitude of my small bedroom. That same imagination was further ignited in high school upon finding my love of the written word. It began to grow with my first reading of The Pelican Brief, then it was set on fire the first time I read Harry Potter.

From those two books my inspiration grew to significant levels. I found my need for the feel of the thrill. The chase. The mystery. I was thrown into the world of magic and wonder. As the imagination grew it allowed for the major life changes that made me who I am today. I found my love for creation. My love for performance. Eventually my love for myself.

I was taken on the journey of becoming a drag performer. My imagination igniting in my home while practicing for a performance or putting together an outfit. The thrill and joy of this art form gave way to freeing myself to become the woman I am today. With the love of this art form in my heart I began to imagine further. My mind began to stick on the notion of what the first trans Disney princess would look like. I began to see her in my minds eye. From there the land she ruled began to grow.

From my imagination to the paper the land of Transadonia was born. There are many instances of love that have come into my life. No love, however, has compared to the love I feel for Transadonia. It is not a passion piece. It is not a once off stop. It has become my world. It feels my thoughts. It fills my heart. Transadonia has helped me to become a better person. Transadonia has further ignited my passion for magic, thrills, the mystery, and most of all the love.
