Hello!
My name is Max Morgan Falk (preferred name Morgan). I am one of the community co-chairs for the 2021-2022 school year, and I am a computer science major in the school of engineering. I am transgender (MtF) and have been undergoing a gender transition through the last seven years, with services provided at UNM’s student health and counseling center. For the last year I have also been out professionally, with my employers and cohort knowing of my gender identity status.

For the last year I have also been out professionally, with my employers and cohort knowing of my gender identity status.
At present, I am spending my summer finishing up a term of service at Americorps, where I am stationed in a research lab on UNM campus. My years of service proved quite fruitful and provided me with numerous skills that will prove beneficial in the future, but I am quite eager to move onto other opportunities that will present themselves. I am extremely excited to take my role in the upcoming school year as the Society of Women Engineers has been one of the most accepting environments that I have encountered during the time that I have been out of the closet professionally. Not only have they been willing to maintain an actively inclusive environment, but they have made a specific point to reach out and encourage me to participate in situations where I would otherwise hesitate to join in as a result of my gender identity.
With the level of vaccinated individuals proving such that New Mexico is able to open up and have in person classes, I am eagerly hoping that UNM will also be able to provide for in-person student organization meetings. While at this point it is not guaranteed we would be able to do so, I am optimistic that come fall I will be able to see my friends in person rather than through a screen.
