Rowyn Sam (he/him)
With his father, Ivan Sam
"I tend to be the person that no one talks to but everyone knows of. In the past two years, I have also come out and transitioned socially. Having an opposite experience of what could happen, I was more accepted and included after I came out than before. Being able to grow into my own person instead of clinging to other people’s ideal version of me."
Cory Cordero (he/they)
With their mother Sheri Cordero
"I’m very lucky to have the people I do in my life, my parents are supportive and the people I surround myself with are the same. However most kids don’t have that. I want to make sure that I can do my best to be there for those who need my help."
