Welcome to my world of magic, authenticity, and empowerment! 🌈 As a multi-hyphenate artist, I've had the privilege of performing on global stages, from enchanting Disney Parks and Resorts to immersive adventures on the Disney Cruise Line. My journey has been one of self-discovery and resilience.🌱 As a queer youth raised in Inglewood, CA, I had to overcome unique struggles in my own life which ignited a passion for empowering others. I believe in the transformative power of storytelling, creative expression, and the magic of embracing our true selves. 🪄In 2020, I founded the Haus of Elevation, a mission-driven company dedicated to inspiring and motivating today's youth. We create empowering workshops and events that encourage young individuals to shine as their authentic selves, sharing their unique lights with the world. Did I mention I do this while balancing on three foot stilts? 🚀🏳️‍🌈 While working on Haus of Elevation I also serve as a mentor for queer youth through the queer mentoring nonprofit Rainbow Labs in South LA. I'm committed to fostering a community of unapologetic courage and radical self-acceptance. I'm also a co-owner of Entertainment Café, where we produce live street theater throughout the nation that sparks joy and wonder in the hearts of our audience. 🎭With my deep roots in Inglewood and a world of incredible experiences, I'm on a mission to help the next generation embrace their authenticity, unlock unapologetic courage, and experience radical self-acceptance. Let's connect, collaborate, and create magic together! 🌟::PAST APPEARANCES::TEDxInglewoodDisney Cruise LineSesame Street LiveUC RiversideLos Angeles Valley Community College::TESTIMONIALS::"The amount of energy BrandElsa brings to the environment is not only contagious but is welcoming and inviting.
