I was at Goldman Sachs when I came out as a trans woman. I wondered if my colleagues thought I was a freak the first time they saw me with makeup on.

The great wardrobe change came about in the winter. For most of my career at Goldman Sachs, I commuted from Pound Ridge into the City, got off the train and jogged to work. My starting point station depended on how hung over I was. 

I kept Hugo Boss suits in a closet at work, had them dry cleaned near the office, and changed back into comfortable sweat clothes for the commute home. The workout gear also served the purpose of soaking up the sweat that broke out when I started slugging vodka or flavored rum right after work.
