Tori Bertran, Subserve youth group manager, is photographed outside her office on Tuesday, October 13, 2015. 
Tori Bertran had a “very unhappy childhood” in South Florida that had nothing to do with her upbringing.
“My childhood was miserable in a very specific way because I was trans,” said Bertran, born in 1974 to Cuban parents who named her Alejandro. “It had nothing to do with whether my family was with me or not. They were a great family. I loved them and they continue to love me, but when you’re a trans kid and you can’t live out your life as you see it, I just found myself very, very miserable.”
