Wesley Smoot

Wesley Smoot is a Central Texas Native, currently residing in Dallas. Wesley has always had an entrepreneurial spirit since early childhood, from making comics to t-shirts, and throwing events. His background in event planning, marketing and PR, has led Wesley to create Unleashed LGBTQ+, an annual 3-day conference/festival that brings thought leaders, industry professionals, and celebrity talent together for speaking engagements, panel discussions, and performances. Wesley has always worked to be a champion for under-served and under-privileged communities and makes it a priority to give a platform for organizations who do impactful work. Working with Emmy-award winning talent and leaders from Fortune 500 Companies has taught Wesley how to navigate his way through industries and how facilitate meaningful connections. He continues to bridge LGBTQ+ business, entertainment, and culture to what he hopes will bring value to Dallas and queer people around the world. Wesley is also the creator of Weslo’s Home-O-Erotic Cookbook.
