Kimya has a master's degree in social work and nearly two decades of experience in the field.
She was the manager of a unit of a long-term care facility for sufferers of Alzheimer's and dementia.
She enjoyed her job, and was good at it.
She suffered through a year of threatening messages, vandalism to her car and slurs uttered in the halls.
In 2003, she was fired, her supervisors telling her, "This would not be happening if you were not a lesbian."
