I was honored to have this Facebook live conversation with three incredible women to celebrate Pride month back in June.

Dr. Davis was a professor and administrator at universities in both Canada and the United States teaching biomechanics and anatomy. She is also a founding member of the Trans Chorus of Los Angeles.

Dr. Davis made her final transition in 2015 having gender affirmation surgery in 2016 and has since lived as her authentic self.
