Nature is my therapy, when I am feeling stressed with work or life in general, you can find me in the mountains. My favorite naturalist is John Muir. One of his quotes is on a bumper sticker on my car, “The Mountains Are Calling, I Must Go.” Another Quote “Keep Close to Nature’s Heart…and break clear away, once in a while, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.”
I am a published iphoneographer. I have been published and interviewed for my landscape photography using my iPhone

I am a 28 year old mom from Michigan. I live here with my husband and XXY baby, Elijah! We received prenatal testing that showed Eli may have Klinefelter’s. When he was born in March of 2020, his diagnosis was confirmed with cord blood testing. My job allows me to be with Eli most of the time, and we plan to homeschool in the future. When I’m not on mom-duty, I love live concerts (pre-COVID), good coffee and shamelessly watching guilty pleasure shows like 90 Day Fiance and The Office!

G’day, I’m Geoff and I live in Victoria, Australia. My wife and I have been married for 12 years and we have a kind hearted 9yo Border Collie named Kargi – which means Brother in Aboriginal.
I’m a chef by trade and last year started my own business: Krucky’s Fine Foods. I love to create delicious chutneys and jams, as well as Granola and a range of gourmet crackers. I also run a successful Sourdough Bread business from home and am expanding into an 100yo wood fired bakery over the next few months. Part of my dream for the business is to be able to mentor and train others in my craft. 

My name is Chelsea Castonguay, and I’m a professional writer and author, as well as the mom of a toddler with XXY. When I’m not helping folks share their stories about living with XXY, I keep busy helping people create amazing resumes, writing content for websites, or working on my second novel. I live in a small town in rural Maine with my son, husband, a tortoiseshell cat who’s the boss of us all, and a black lab. We also have a backyard flock of seven chickens. It feels wonderful to be apart of this amazing Klinefelter Syndrome team and helping this amazing community grow. I look forward to working with you and your family. If you have any questions, please email me.

My name is Carson, I’m the Living with XXY Advocate for Early Intervention (EI).

My husband Kevin and I met in college and are alumni of Emporia State University. We are currently raising two boys here in Middle America. Our youngest is 47, XXY receiving a diagnosis at 16 months.

Advocacy is a part of our family! Not only do we all focus on supporting the XXY community but as a family, we also advocate for safe active transportation such as walking and biking in rural & suburban areas.
We all love getting outside, connecting, and the only thing missing is my need for a year-round warm climate!

Years ago I came to the United States from Poland to be an Au Pair. I had the chance to mesh my Polish upbringing with American culture and apply it to child care. There’s no better feeling than excitement and pride watching children grow up. I learned about XXY upon meeting Ryan when I moved to San Diego. I am happy to be apart of this amazing Klinefelter syndrome team. I grew up dancing to Frank Sinatra, attended University for International Business and I love eating napoleons (yum!). I spend my free time working on advanced yoga techniques, hiking, and paddleboarding in beautiful San Diego.

I’m a married mom of three boys that lives near Sacramento, CA. My youngest son, Thane, was diagnosed in utero with XXY. As knowledge spreads, we grow as part of a beautiful community. I’m here as an advocate to spread awareness for my son and other boys and men like him.
