2023 Participant Biographies

Ms. Sonia Swann

She/Her/Hers

I am Sonia Swann she/her/hers, the cisgender fiancée of my significant other, Shannon, who is coming out for the first time this year. We hail from Erie, are part of the Erie Brothers and Sisters and helped as volunteer staff with the Lake Erie Gala. This is our first time at Keystone, and I am eager to support the trans community behind the scenes and my partner, as she discovers more about her authentic self. We have been together for 2 years and collectively have 4 children and 1 grandchild. I am currently back in school working towards a graduate social work degree and a political science degree. I will be offering workshops at Keystone as well, come find me, I would love to meet you!
