Patrick is a 50-ish year old, black, gay trans man.  He started his medical transition in 2012 and started socially transitioning on a part-time basis around 2007 or 2008.  He discovered language that allowed him to understand himself around 2005., but struggled to take the steps to begin the process for a while.  

Patrick is a funeral director.  “So I guess you'd say that is my "expertise".  I've tried to be an advocate for getting information out to the queer/trans community about pre-planning for death to ensure they are recognized/respected in death.” 
Patrick is interested in weightlifting/fitness/nutrition as hobbies.
