On the road from UWindsor's School of Visual Arts to Canada's Drag Race, artistry has always taken centre stage for Jo Primeau (BFA '11). 

Better known as drag persona Juice Boxx, Primeau began performing back in 2016 after graduating from UWindsor and moving to Toronto to study makeup and special effects at Complections Makeup Artistry (now CMU College).  

Work in television, film and events, followed by a role with MAC Cosmetics, eventually led Primeau to drag.
