JJ Hawkins proudly hails from Antioch, CA in the San Francisco Bay Area. He was born into a Mormon family six generations deep (on both sides), which was wonderful until him being transgender became pretty apparent at the age of four. After a childhood and adolescence attempting to ignore said gender and reconcile this with his family and religion, he schlepped off to the Mormon Mecca for college: Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. JJ did some necessary activism there alongside some necessary secret-keeping, and graduated not only with a healthy dose of trauma, but also a degree in Acting and Linguistics. JJ taught English in Florence, Italy for a bit before moving to Los Angeles and starting his professional acting career. Since 2015, JJ has utilized his talent, his queer niche, and his lifelong experience of rejection to be making strides in this industry far too barren of voices like his.
JJ uses he/him and they/them pronouns interchangeably.
