Bio:
Since I was a teen, there was always a leaning toward feminine dress. After a lifetime ebbs and flows of who I truly was, I revealed my true self to the world on April 4, 2022. There was a lot of speculating about how people would react but it has been a very positive experience.

Once I was out of the closet, I didn't want to create another by living in seclusion so I have lived a very public life testing boundaries of society. I have always tried living the life that paves a path for both myself and those that follow. If I can be a positive experience to those I meet, I can give those that follow a chance at the same positive experience.

I have found that there are many allies out there. Most of them want to know more about me but also what they hear and don't understand. I endeavour to create a safe space for allies to ask questions. Education and safe spaces are key to gaining allies. I have been there for others at Hillhurst United, Wolseley Canada and Rainbow Elders Society of Calgary but also my day to day dealings with people I meet.
