We are chatting with Peyton Rose Michelle, a 26-year-old trans-woman native to Lafayette, Louisiana. As the inaugural Executive Director of Louisiana Trans Advocates, Peyton spearheads transformative legislative initiatives and plays a pivotal role in guiding LocALL (Legislative Organizing Coalition for All LGBTQ+ Louisianans), a coalition co-founded by LTA. In a historic move, Peyton made history by becoming the first openly transgender person elected in the state of Louisiana in July 2020. Beyond her groundbreaking political achievements, Peyton seamlessly merges her skills in advocacy, marketing, and organizing to drive meaningful change and create a more inclusive future.
