Smashbcosplay—dubbed the “first family of cosplay”—is headed by myself, the creator and maker of the cosplays. You will find us volunteering at local comic cons to promote other conventions and frequenting cosplay meetups. I joined the cosplay community to make new friends and promote positive mental health. We compete both as a family and solo, as well as in groups with other cosplayers. I am known for my gender bends, such as Darth Maulmmy and IndiAnna Jones. Catch me hosting cosplay photography meetups or making some upcycled cosplays. My cosplay style is much like my approach to parenting: Fun, hands-on, homemade, and sprinkled with a lot of love.
I have a deep love for fantasy and sci-fi which is a common theme in our cosplays. I enjoy sharing my love of public speaking by hosting fun panels such as “Cosplay with Younglings,” “Making Connections at Conventions,” “Con Prep for Families” and many others.
