J. Winkelried

J. is currently living and proudly transitioning in Brooklyn, New York. They grew up in NJ and went off to Nashville, to study at Vanderbilt University. After a couple of years they decided to focus on their health and well-being and returned to New York City to settle into the beginnings of transitioning and living as their true unapologetic self. J. is interested in the arts and fostering tolerance for those who choose to follow a different path with respect to personal gender identities. They are patriotic and loves our country but thinks we all have a lot more work to do to ensure our freedom and respect for one another. J. hopes this film helps develop a better understanding for people now, young and old, and for future generations. Going forward, J. will be looking to continue to advocate for the transgender community.
