I was born C. D. Neely. However, I am known now as D (Dee) which covers all the aspects of my birth name, my chosen name and the various aspects of my interactions with other people. I was born on July 13, 1964 in Birmingham, Alabama. I was different in many ways from those around me. I was different than my family. I was different than my neighbors. I seemed to be different than just about everyone. It took me years to accept the differences and accept the reason for the differences.

I have done many things during my life. I learned about Star Trek. I learned about science. I got a degree in computer science. I played in the martial arts. I played with historical reenactment. I worked with various space advocacy, environment and science groups. I learned to release religion. I learned to embrace my sexuality and gender variations. I had some kids. However, I never found a place where I truly belonged.

I now proudly accept the differences between myself and the general population. I accept that the reason I am different is that I was born with different capacities, capabilities and understanding than the average human being.
