Why did you decide to shine the spotlight on this Fangirl?
I love being a Fangirl! Being a part of the fan community has been like being part of a huge family. It has been amazing getting to go to Star Wars Celebration Anaheim and Disney’s Star Wars Weekends with my family, and I love getting to meet other Fangirls and share my fandom with others.
How does this Fangirl express her fandom?
I love to draw and paint my favorite fandom characters, especially Star Wars. I also enjoy sewing and crafting geeky clothes and accessories for myself and my sister, and I sewed costumes for us for Star Wars Celebration Anaheim this April. I have also just started getting into cosplay, and it has been super fun to get to be some of my favorite characters for a day, such as when I dressed up as Tauriel and a Jedi in the photo.
