Meet Benjamin

Benjamin  (he/him) is a 20-year-old trans man whose life was recently turned upside down after being hit by a drunk driver while driving his project car with his dog, Titus. Both he and Titus are recovering, but the accident has left Benjamin navigating physical therapy, spine surgeries, and TBI treatment while trying to get back on his feet in the automotive industry. Reduced work hours and medical restrictions have made it challenging to keep up with bills and healthcare needs.

Despite these hardships, Benjamin remains resilient. He’s an avid car enthusiast, an artist, and someone who loves to cook for his friends. At home, he’s surrounded by his beloved pets—two cats, Goose and Maverick, his dog Titus, several fish, and even a foster pup.

“Being on and off HRT really makes you feel ill,” Benjamin shares. “I’m so glad not to have to worry about it during this season of healing.” With this support, Benjamin is looking forward to stability, health, and continuing to build a future he feels excited about.
