Transitioning In Plain Sight: I Transitioned Into a Man While Making My First Film

"I transitioned in plain sight...while completing my first feature film, because I thought the most stressful time of my life needed a little excitement.

I always knew I was transgender, but I didn't always have a name for it. Others identified me as someone in a female body attracted to women, but as much as I appreciated the female form, it felt wrong on me. I've always had a relatively masculine body and put on muscle easily, which made it less difficult for me to accept the skin I inhabited even before I seriously considered transitioning. If I'd had a feminine body, my level of discomfort might have propelled me forward sooner. Instead, I started working out in my early twenties."
