Sasha Classe

(They/Them/Theirs)

Sasha is Hispanic and an openly gay mental health professional. Everyday they aim to debunk stereotypes in the workplace and community. They show up and give 100% to everything they do. Sasha strives to positively contribute to their community, be a role model and be there for others when there is a need. They are a champion of hope when things around us look bleak.

“Visibility is so important after being made to feel invisible for so long. This project is me speaking my truth and showing others that no one has the right to make you feel invisible or box you into what they think you should be. This project is me standing up to every one of my bullies, I’m still here standing proud. When I was younger I had no role models and no one to turn to. I need for others to know that they are not alone. We are here, fighting the good fight with you.”
