Waymon Hudson stands at the ocean’s edge during a golden sunset, wearing a crisp white shirt and gazing back over his shoulder with a contemplative expression. The warm sky and waves frame a moment of queer expat calm and coastal freedom.

Authentic. Unfiltered.
Creative.
Impactful.

Want to connect with an audience that craves joy, depth, creativity, and realness?

As a queer lifestyle creator and late-deafened voice for empowerment, I’ve built a platform that blends identity, storytelling, and everyday beauty. From brand collaborations to authentic UGC, I partner with companies that believe in connection over perfection — and share the same heartbeat.

✨ Who I Am
(And Why It Matters)

I’m Waymon Hudson — a late-deafened queer creative living boldly in Costa Rica. I’m a Broadway musical creator, published memoirist, keynote speaker, and award-winning marketing strategist.

But on Instagram? I’m your favorite anti-hustle queer expat — turning midlife reinvention into a movement of joy, visibility, and unapologetic living.

I speak fluently, lipread expertly, and show up fully — from sunrise surf sessions and dog dad chaos to political real talk and creative behind-the-scenes in the jungle.

This isn’t “influencer lite.”

This is storytelling with soul. Visibility with value. And a connection that actually converts.
