Chantell Martin reflects on her experiences of transition and some of the major emotional turning points in her life.

\r\n

Originally from New Zealand, Chantell Martin has worked predominantly in the community sector. She worked for ACON as their housing officer, then went onto work for the Gender Centre as a case worker and housing officer within their residential project. Chantell is an active trans sex worker who works as the Transgender Outreach Officer at SWOP. And she is one of the founding members of the only Transgender Housing Co-operative in NSW which was established in 2011 and has been operating as a legal entity since 2016.
