Grae Mellenthin lives in Seattle with his fiancé and his grumpy cat. He is a phlebotomist who has worked the frontlines during the height of the pandemic. Grae would trade anything for that California sunshine and he has fond memories of his childhood in Menlo Park, CA. He is very excited to share his gender journey. 

My name is Anne Mellenthin. I live in Menlo Park and have three adult children, one of whom is a transgender man. I am an interior designer and a tutor for Reading Partners. I am a CHC Ambassador, former panelist, and sat on the advisory council during the formation of Sand Hill School. I seek to raise awareness of the mental health issues that may debilitate transgender youth as they come to terms with their gender identity.
