This is Buttercup last night asleep in my legs. She is very much a corgi.

What if transitioning turns out better than you ever imagined? What becomes possible then?

These are the questions which challenge me to do my best every day.

Just a trans woman spinning through your feed.

The most important part of coming out as trans for me was to not lose my whitewater community in the process.

Amazingly, in this tiny niche extreme sport, our crew includes 2 trans paddlers, many women, and folks of all ages.

All which is all to say:

Stop worrying about other people’s gender!

One of the things that continues to astound me about my own gender transition is how effortlessly I can transition from a high-femme hottie to a badass whitewater kayaker.

Trans Visibility is incredibly powerful, and I am proud of who I am.

I’m going to be at the Stonewall Inn demonstration on February 22nd in NYC. Please join me getting loud for our rights and our history.

What can I say - I look good as a trans woman.
