Denise Winkelman was raised in a small town in Northern Minnesota. She struggled with her identity, because her father is an Evangelical Pastor and felt she would not be accepted. After she graduated from college, she decided to try to be masculine and moved to Cincinnati to become a professional wrestler. Where she learned way too much about guys. She left wrestling to transition from male to female. As a lifelong fan of comedy, she started stand up in 2017 as a creative outlet and to have a voice. She is a regular on the Dat Phan and friends showcases. She has cowritten a dramatic television pilot â€"The Authentic Step”. It was recently named a semi-finalist in the Big Apple Film Festival. Her unique perspective and experiences will move you to find humor in any tragedy. She is wrestling with transition.
