As a young trans woman, Bonita is passionate about creating space for other LGBTQIA+ individuals and young kids in the mainstream fields that influence, impact, and shape identity. She chose entertainment and arts as her profession not just because she dreamt of becoming an actress someday but also because she lost and found herself in films. The lack of representation of queer and queerness made her question herself as a kid, so now she wishes to become the hope for every queer kid who finds representation through her and her art.
Fueling and channeling her passion for the cause, Bonita also writes for several online platforms about trans and LGBTQIA+ issues.
