Hi, I’m Dominic Anthony Pérignon (he/him). I’m a pansexual trans man, content creator, and the founder of T-Time Media. Born in Houston, Texas and now based in Hollywood, I use storytelling as a tool for identity, advocacy, and cultural impact.
I know what it’s like to grow up without a mirror. To search for stories like mine and only find silence, stereotypes, or someone else’s idea of who I should be. Visibility always felt like it was for someone else — someone more polished, more palatable. That’s why I built T-Time: not just as a brand, but as a space rooted in truth, community, and creative rebellion. This isn’t just content. It’s connection. It’s survival. And when we tell the truth about who we are, loudly and unapologetically, we don’t just exist, we shift the whole culture. My goal is to remind people that we, trans folk, were never the problem. We were just waiting for the mic.
T-Time didn’t start as a brand. It started as a lifeline. My safe space. Late-night voice notes. Posts I almost didn’t publish. Notes to myself that became letters to the world. I wasn’t seeing trans men like me; tattooed, pansexual, pierced, “imperfect”. I remember being a teenager and watching everyone talk about who inspired them. But me? I was searching for inspiration and couldn’t find a reflection anywhere. So I stopped waiting and started sharing my story.
I talked about hormone shots, body changes, dating as a trans guy, and the weird little moments that made everything feel real. Slowly, people started listening. Then relating. Then sharing their own stories. And just like that, what started as survival turned into a platform. A series. A community. A brand.
T-Time is more than content, it is a challenge to the narratives we’ve been left out of. T-Time is meant to actively push back against the mainstream stories and stereotypes that have excluded people like me.
Transitioning in public wasn’t always the plan, but being upfront became the only way I could move forward. The stories I needed didn’t exist, so I started telling my own. I moved to California by myself with nothing but my voice, a vision, my platforms, and the need to start over somewhere where I felt supported. Every step, from my first shot of testosterone to navigating dating, self-worth, and community; has been a lesson in unlearning all of the shame I was told I needed to feel, and choosing myself instead.
Hollywood is my backdrop, but my work stayed grounded in where I came from: the South, the internet, the in-between places where people like me are constantly told to shrink. I chose to grow louder instead.
Now, I create content that connects the personal and sometimes political, the vulnerable and the visible; reminding my audience that trans men aren’t one-note stories. We’re full, we’re different, and we are also creative, when allowed to be.
As a teenager, I wanted to build a career in photography, film, and editing. But no matter how hard I worked, how polished my work was, or how much I built my platforms, the opportunities just weren’t there. Especially not for someone like me at that age: a trans-masculine creative without connections, funding, or a “safe” backstory.
So now, my mission is to increase representation and access for transmasculine creatives. Whether we’re in front of the camera or behind it, holding the mic or shaping the final cut; leading the conversation or just existing in the frame. Sometimes we’re the speaker, sometimes we’re the story, and sometimes we’re simply present—being valued just to show up, take up space, and shift what visibility actually looks like. T-Time Media exists to challenge an industry that continues to overlook trans men, exclude us from lifestyle and travel narratives, and limit our opportunities in media.
I’m building a platform that not only tells the stories mainstream media ignores, but also carves out space for others to thrive. That means collaborating with trans creatives, spotlighting queer-owned brands, and using my platform to shift who gets seen, heard, and valued.
This isn’t just about visibility, for me it’s about ownership, access, and real change.
