Public Profile

Public Bio:

I'm Lori, a founding board member of INTRAA. I have been active since its inception in 2002. My husband Bryan is also a board member, but he can tell you more about himself (look for the Transman user).

Yes, I am a SOFFA (Significant Other, Family, Friend, Ally). So welcome to all you other SOFFAs out there. In addition to posting an intro here, you may want to join the discussion of what it means to be a SOFFA in the trans community and why some SOFFAs choose to (re)claim the label tranny chaser in the Tranny Chaser Dialogues forum. Yeah, it's controversial and some people may not identify with the term, but that shouldn't stop you from posting your opinion about it! I'm hoping we will talk about many sides of this issue as the dialogue unfolds.

As for INTRAA, I am currently the main web developer for this site as well as http://www.tgcrossroads.org and http://www.indyboyz.org/. I represent INTRAA in the statewide coalition, Indiana Equality (http://www.indianaequality.org) as a board member of the Indiana Equality Eduction Fund.

I've also worked on websites and for the National Center for Transgender Equality and the National Transgender Advocacy Coalition.
