Scheduled Events

For years I've been busy speaking to groups to share my story with the transgender community. I hope my journey has helped others who are transitioning to their true self. I'm much happier with myself as I share my journey and I express my love and compassion to those looking for their true self.

Make an appointment with me to speak to your group or organization, or for photo shoots and one-on-one interviews.

    Hi Karen, We met back in 2019 when you spoke to our Red Cross DEI group at our office in Silver Spring. We would love to invite you back. March is Red Cross month and we'd love to hear more about your experience as a trans volunteer with our organization. We also had a question from a staff member requesting more information about whether LGBTQ+ acceptance in the military is increasing and whether that truly extends to the trans community. The event would be virtual (held on Microsoft Teams) and would be open to all staff and volunteers in the National Capital and Greater Chesapeake Region. We typically get about 30-60 people joining these monthly calls. I'm glad to set up a time to chat to further flesh out the structure of the presentation. Thank you for considering! Kit

            In the Colorado case, David Mullins and Charlie Craig visited Masterpiece Cakeshop in July 2012, along with Craig's mother, to order a cake for their upcoming wedding reception. Mullins and Craig planned to marry in Massachusetts, where same-sex marriages were legal at the time, and then hold a reception in Colorado. But Phillips refused to discuss the issue, saying his religious beliefs would not allow him to have anything to do with same-sex marriage. He said other bakeries would accommodate them.

              Speaking Engagement
              Event Details:
              WHAT?: Join trans students, parents, families, and allies in the community as we gather together for trans student rights. This event will take place outside the Board of Education before the meeting. According to emails from the Board, during this meeting, policy protecting trans students will be discussed. We need the Board to realize how important (and urgent!) these issues are to the Frederick community, and we can do that by showing up in numbers. WHY?: Trans students are the highest at-risk population in schools. Compare the rates of suicide from 4.6% of the general American population to 41% of trans folks. When trans students can't use the restroom of their choice at school, or when their educators and peers refuse to use the correct name and pronouns, they are in danger. Policy and regulation guarantee a positive and affirming experience in schools.
