Title: Hiya! ^_^ Trans*masculine singer here.

Hi everyone! My name's Holden, I'm 28, and I'm a non-binary, trans*masculine person who has been on testosterone for about 5 years, and had top surgery 3 years ago. He/They pronouns. I'm American and currently living in Germany working as a classical singer.
It's been an interesting journey for me since I'm a working singer, and have had to fight a bit with my vocal transition to keep working. It's going well so far, but has required a lot of patience.
I've been coming to the forums for quite a few years to look for answers to questions, and it has been immensely helpful. I thought I'd come and contribute my own answers, and also ask a few specific questions I haven't been able to find answers for.
