Join me at Navy Pier Pride tomorrow as I serve as the ordained minister who will be facilitating Chicago's biggest Queer wedding at 5:30pm. I'll be delivering a message on the power of love and community in our lives and count it a great joy to be able to oversee this ceremony.

Thank you to Brian Rhinehart and Laura Diaz for your overwhelming hospitality and organizing efforts. It is my job to start the conversation and teach you how to continue the conversation after I'm gone. I am assured progress will continue under your hands! #theworkcontinues #lgbtqpride #consultant #keynotespeaker (at True Value World Headquarters)

It was my esteemed pleasure to sit down with Senior Vice President Cathy Anderson at True Value Company headquarters yesterday to discuss Transgender cultural competency as well as LGBTQ inclusion in the workplace for their annual lunch and learn series. I was the special guest speaker for Pride month and debunked stereotypes surrounding Trans/ Queer/ and GNC populations and shared strategies that promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace. It was a packed house and I want to thank the Inclusion and Diversity council at True Value for the invitation and celebrate the work you are doing to create an inclusive and equitable corporate culture. More photos to come! #theworkcontinues #keynotespeaker #consultant #diversity #equity #inclusion #lgbtqpride #pride2017 #thisismylife (at True Value World Headquarters)
