Brian McGuire

A native of Southern California, Brian loves the outdoors. After relocating to Utah, he met his wife, Laurann, while purchasing his home; she was his real estate agent. Brian is an active Roman Catholic, and his wife is an active Latter-Day Saint. When asked about his mixed religion and orientation marriage, he will tell you that his marriage is happy and just like any other marriage. In fact, orientation and religion don’t come up often. He is well acquainted with his own hang-ups and false stories about sexuality and masculinity but attributes his happiness and success to active participation in his mental health, his friendships, and to God.
