About Kasen Meek

Hey Derby City! I'm Kasen! I'm a Louisville native living life as fully, authentically, positively, and transparently as possible. My Louisville roots are deep and my blood is Cardinal red. I am many things...UofL grad, on again/off again runner, yelper, Broadway musical and arts junkie, bourbon enthusiast, Marvel movie fan, evening couch surfer, Blōfish maven, boyfriend, live-by-example-not-hate Christian, and a transguy.

In August 2017, I publicly came out as trans and started my medical and social transition. I started documenting my journey on Instagram @trans.parent_kasen. Complimenting my Insta, this blog is intended to offer you a window into my trans experience as I navigate life, dating, work, and family in a bible-belt state. I'm being visible and transparent so we can have tough conversations, break down barriers, normalize inclusivity, and continue to make Louisville a city of compassion. I hope to answer questions you might have and give you insights on how you can be a better ally for the LGBTQ community.
