“I Have Always Lived My Life Very Fearlessly and Unapologetically”

LaQuan Smith on Growing Up with Community and Family

“Growing up in Jamaica, Queens, I definitely knew that I was different from most of the kids in my neighborhood and my school. I have always lived my life very fearlessly and unapologetically, and while some would probably associate that with a level of confidence, ultimately that stemmed from being deeply and unconditionally loved by my family.”

Growing Up, Coming Out is a series of personal reflections from queer American designers, released every day this month. Read LaQuan Smith’s full story here.
