Additionally, board members Phoebe Ellman, Leslee Friedman, Rachel Greeman, Jackie Jimenez, Mike Moon, and Sara Munson contribute their expertise and enthusiasm to the cause. Geeks OUT is committed to making vibrant queer nerdy spaces a reality, and they achieve this through their various programs and initiatives.
