Reflections

The Shoulders We Stand On
Queer Reflection’s tribute series, “The Shoulders We Stand On,” honors ten queer pioneers whose courage, brilliance, and defiance made this moment possible. Their stories aren’t just history—they’re the blueprints for the empathy, action, and change we’re building today.
The Cost of Invisibility: How Trump Is Erasing LGBTQ+ History
History isn’t just what we remember — it’s what we’re allowed to remember. When the government deletes words like transgender from the Stonewall Monument or scrubs queer veterans from military archives, it’s not cleanup. It’s erasure. And in a country that already treats queer lives as expendable, silence is strategy.
We Were Born For Love: What Neuroscience Taught Me About Empathy, Queerness, and Building Something Better
Inspired by Dr. Bruce Perry’s “Born for Love,” Queer Reflection explores how empathy shapes queer identity, why it’s endangered—and how immersive storytelling can revive it.

Queer Reflection: Transforming Understanding Through Immersive Empathy
Queer Reflection is a groundbreaking empathy platform that goes beyond education—offering immersive, emotionally responsive experiences that let users live through the joys, fears, and challenges of LGBTQ+ lives. By bridging the empathy gap through AI-driven storytelling and augmented reality, we’re not just changing minds—we’re rewiring them.
The First Encounter: Coming Out at the Dinner Table
Our first Encounter begins at the dinner table—an intimate, emotional simulation where you come out to your family and feel every reaction in real time. It’s immersive, raw, and the first step in building a more empathetic world. We’re inviting the queer community to help us choose what comes next.
Why I Started Queer Reflection
I didn’t start Queer Reflection to build another platform—I built it because I needed a way to survive the silence, the misunderstanding, and the distance between queer lives and the world’s willingness to feel them. This is more than tech. It’s a love letter, a mirror, and a spark.
