Description: From author: I impact positive change for the LGBTQ community by being, unapologetically, myself. I believe that being yourself and having a sense of comfortability in your own skin is important because not only does it give yourself confidence but it can also affect others around you. Showing others that confidence, who are questioning their gender or sexuality, can really assist them to feel not so alone or more even make them feel comfortable. Also, show kindness. We've all struggled at one point or another so show people the kindness they deserve and think about how you would want to be treated. Ottesen is a senior, double majoring in Psychology and French. Pronouns: he/him/his.
