Rebuilt from Ruin

I’m Upton Rand— writer, founder, and field reporter on the lives we live and the stories we survive. While much of my work centers queer experience, this space is open to anyone drawn to truth, tension, and perspective. You’ll find essays that cut deeper, hand-designed T-shirts, and signed copies of my latest book. We also believe in the power of technology to connect—this site runs on ethically hand-trained AI models, and we consult with small businesses and mid-sized enterprises to implement adaptive, inclusive AI systems that work in the real world.
