Chris Mosier (he/him) is a white trans man who was called “The Man who Changed the Olympics.” In 2015 he became the first openly trans man to make Team U.S.A. and was the catalyst for change of the International Olympic Committee’s policy on transgender athletes. He is sponsored by Nike and was the first transgender athlete to land a contract with a major sporting company. He still competes, trains others, and advocates for inclusive sports policies at all levels, especially during this time of unprecedented hostility. And perhaps he is most importantly a visible role model to countless other gender diverse people who want nothing more than to participate in sports like anyone else. When not fighting the good fight, he mentors transgender and nonbinary athletes around the world in hopes that he can live by his motto of “Be who you needed when you were younger.” His website is the go-to source for information about transgender athletes in sport. —[Surviving Transphobia](https://www.survivingtransphobia.com/#about)
