“I am an artist who works with colored pencil, mixed media and acrylic. I am a writer also. I have mild Cerebral Palsy. I have two grown children, three dogs and a cat. I am married to a trans woman. I am bisexual. I came out about five years ago and I feel liberated for being truly myself. I want to encourage youth to have the confidence to be themselves. I am so fortunate to live in the Pacific Northwest where being LGBTQIA2S+ is celebrated and valued.”
