Renner is a communications professional and LGBTQ+ advocate. He lives in University Heights. The term icon can be overused these days.

In San Diego and nationally, Tracie is well known for her advocacy for the transgender community.
Thanks to Stepping Stone of San Diego, one of the nation’s only alcohol and drug treatment programs specializing in LGBTQ+ care, she was able to get the affirming support she needed. That eventually led to a new identity: advocate. From there, she began working in hospice care for AIDS-diagnosed individuals. She constantly witnessed friends and community members die, often after being rejected by their biological families. The emotional intensity of that led to burnout.
