Meet our Host!

CAJUN CON is excited to announce Taycosplayy as our host of our Cajun Con Cosplay contest! Tayy began cosplaying in 2018 from a love of pop culture and costuming, a love which only grew exponentially once she began attending conventions.

Conventions introduced her to a world of costumes and other cosplayers, whose skill she aspired to match through her own creations. Although the learning curve was steep, Tay’s skills improved tremendously in her first year, getting her noticed by area conventions, which led to guest spots at comic and anime conventions.

Tay began competing in costume contests soon after, and her cosplay of Chandra from Magic: The Gathering placed in the top three at Louisiana Comic Con.

Since then, she has competed in contests around the southern United States, placing or winning several. She will also go on to judge cosplay competitions and share her passion through informative panels.

Not only has Tay turned her love of costumes into an all-consuming hobby, but she has also managed to turn it into a full-time job! She owns Enchanting Memories Entertainment, which provides princesses and heroes for parties and events across her home state of Mississippi. She will be joined by Little MS Cosplay & Little Red Fox Cosplay.
