Many thanks to @beckelbecker for deciding to tell this story in a beautifully shot and edited short piece on finding my way to drag.
And thanks to @whyioughtta and @washingtonimprovtheater for connecting us, as well as @billnelson728 and the cast of @theqvc for allowing him to film. And Dennis for agreeing to filming at home!
A lot of footage was cut to the essentials as were many shoutouts and thanks. A lot of love and kindness from friends, family, and strangers alike has made the authentic path of my life possible. I still have a lot to learn, but Iām grateful to know to my core that what we do is good and joyful, and Iām so thankful for all the talented queer people and allies I do it alongside.
For me, drag is a playful celebration of queer & feminine humor, power, and self-possession. Itās using everything Iāve got. & Iām better able to connect with others when I let all of me come out.
Happy womenās history month! Be gay, do crimes, and if the man stops paying yaāgo steal some heels š #drag #queer #genderqueer #improv #characters #wigs #theater #cats

As a #tarot reader, I have a growing base of regular clients. They keep coming back because they experience the resultsāmaking wiser choices, taking action, feeling empowered, and being seen with understanding, and without judgement.
Just the other day I received an email from someone who was empowered to make active choices in their life after their reading, and is looking forward to another.
I also think a one-off reading at life crossroads moments can be valuable as well.
I donāt claim psychic prophecy, I do aspire to accurate insightāa combination of intuition, intellect, and heart that can help you find clarity, acceptance, and hope.
Suggested tip for a 50 minute-ish FaceTime reading is $50, sliding scale based on your circumstances, also price for gift readings. This number was arrived at because my service is valuable, receives excellent feedback and I believe in its ability to heal & re-enchant, but I also want it to be accessible.
Link to my webpage in bio. Just fill out the form at the bottom of the page, and will be in touch. Also available to be booked for cabaret acts, or to read guests for events and parties, in full #drag regalia as Joan Q. Has been a hit, all over DC and the region.
DM with any further questions, or for references.
Happy #aquarius season!

And weāre still here!
An inadequate selection of memories with many dear darlings just out of frame. This was the year of the snake, and old skins were definitely shed! Thank you, this year mostly just made me grateful for everyone in my life. š
Was so grateful to spend a some quality time with the godsons and sister & brother-in-law! Also thereās a legit cave inside a museum in Cincinnati the Midwest is amazing. Merry Christmas!
Grateful to have been able to visit my raspberry-loving niece Peyton š¹ and her mommy, daddy, nonny & poppy this weekend. She is a cutie!! And what a throwing arm

Spellbinding photos from the kind & talented @mfaalasli of Joanās supernatural talk show Under the Stars TONIGHT with @washingtonimprovtheater from Oct 25!
Joan was costumed and tarot-supplied by Bill the Virgo @billnelson728 and joined onstage by fabulous co-host Sarah the Leo (@herholsj ) as we took in the ASTOUNDING supernatural tale from special guest & @hellcat_improv coach @kelspeters involving a Goop Ghost witnessed by herself and her bff and now TO DIE FOR šŖ¦cookbook author @laflaneure !
Joan and friends then read tarot on the dating life of a lovely audience member, and then witnessed pet psychic Pawlina (@holly.hobgoblin ) astonish with an accurate read of @geneveevs cat, before the house was plunged into darkness and Joan invited the audience to listen for the spirits all around (& what WAS that sound backstage, anyway?)
Look for future installments of UNDER THE STARS TONIGHT in the new year! And thanks to all (especially @night_kourt in the booth!) who came together to create this special & spooky evening.
On a freezing Christmas night, isolated and unraveling, Kevinās despair leads to an encounter that blurs the line between faith and coincidence.
