Hello!

Welcome! / April 2020
Thanks for stopping by!  My name is Kyle, and I'm a student at Brooklyn College in the CUNY Baccalaureate for Unique and Interdisciplinary Studies program, studying Queer Psychosocial Research.  My work centers around the destigmatization of transgender and gender nonconforming individuals, and creating real and lasting social change through pedagogy and direct action.  I'm constantly working towards education and expanding the freedoms of LGBTQIA+ people. 
Your legacy is every life you've touched.”
