Mitchell Bryant
Director | He/Him
Mitchell Bryant is a proud trans man from Texas who knows firsthand what it feels like to be rejected by family. That experience fuels his passion for creating safe, affirming spaces for others through his work with Stand In Pride. A father of four amazing kids and the caretaker of three quirky cats, Mitchell is also a huge nerd at heart. He loves horror movies, true crime, and spending time with the people he loves most. He wishes he had more time to read, but is beyond honored to be part of Stand In Pride and to support a mission so close to his heart.
