Paris Antoinette Quion

Paris Antoinette Quion is a Southern California-based drag entertainer, businesswoman, activist, and advocate for the LGBTQ community. Born and raised in San Diego, California, Paris is always proud to boast about the impact the Hillcrest community has had on her upbringing. Her parents used San Diego’s LGBT Center services during her coming out and throughout her transition, which inspired her to help further their outreach now as an adult. She has devoted her life to the betterment of the queer community with a focus on youth and the most vulnerable community members. Offstage, she is a regular fixture in government spaces, corporate businesses, and school campuses - training others on LGBTQ rights and gender sensitivity. She also shares her journey as a trans person in the hopes of fostering a gentler and more accepting world.
