I'm Jenna Say What?!? You may know me from my cosplays, but I am so much more than that. I started out modeling around 2010 with Blu Water Modeling. There I not only modeled but also helped out with the makeup alongside the talented Contessa.I went to NC Comic-Con back in 2012 in a Trashy.com Captain America Costume and TERRIBLY-made shield. I felt WAY too overwhelmed especially since I didn't feel I had the talent to make homemade cosplays so I stuck Cap back in the closet and decided never again.In 2014 I decided to give NC Comic Con one more try. I had purchased a Captain America Shield and decided to attempt sewing. My husband gave me a quick lesson on the machine and he left for a job, this meant I was on my own to try to make this outfit. For the first time, in probably my whole life, I felt powerful. I felt like I could take on everything and anything.This would eventually be something I used to battle my anxiety and depression.In March 2016 I would take my past to the C2E2 stage as It's Not Your Fault, a panel I created to talk about overcoming abuse and bullying through cosplay. It honestly meant a lot to me to debut it in my home state. I still to this day do my panel at conventions (mainly in the Carolinas) because I strongly believe that this panel is an important message to bring to conventions.
