OAK

I am a mostly able white trans masculine author who self-published “You (don’t) Suck,” a hybrid memoir, in 2022. I openly write about my life growing up as a girl and coming out as trans-masculine when I was thirty-five, an act of resistance and freedom.

Storyteller, parent, artist, activist, trans advocate, and public speaker, I am known for my raw and honest writing processing trauma, motivated by my experiences as a survivor of incest, living with Chronic Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and chronic illnesses. I am fighting for queer and trans rights every day. I live with my chosen family: my queer platonic partner and our respective children.

You can find me at my local coffee shop in the Hudson Valley drinking matcha and writing my new memoir.
