Yahto is a musical theatre student who is fashion-forward and gender-queer and he owns it with a rock-solid confidence that belies his young age of 18. He reveals that this is largely down to how supportive his parents have been from a very young age. Nowhere is this more apparent than in his name which means “blue” in a Native American language. His mom said she was resolute about naming him after the colour blue to remind him his dreams could stretch from the deepest depths of the ocean to the highest point in the sky. He’s been doing voice-training since he was only six and would even entertain shoppers at the mall. As such, he feels born for the stage, the one place he’s always free to live out his wildest dreams.
