Originally from Lafayette, LA, Parker Guidry is a genderfluid, Chicago-based actor and LGBTQ+ advocate. Much of their work onstage and onscreen strives to push the boundaries in creating more trans and queer representation. They also work for Cision, a public relations software company, where they serve as the global co-president and secretary of Pulse, Cision's LGBTQ+ employee resource group. In their spare time, Parker loves fashion, and will take any excuse to put together a new outfit and get dressed up. They're huge fans of Beyoncé, RuPaul's Drag Race, and Pokémon. And if this resonates with anyone: they're a Ravenclaw, triple-Scorpio, and proud member of House Tyrell.
