Who Was Sophia Hutchins Before Caitlyn Jenner?

Sophia Hutchins is currently missing New York City while in quarantine. She's also promoting her sunscreen product line, Lumasol, reminiscing on Insta about her family and friends, and telling fun stories about Caitlyn Jenner in interviews. She's come a long way from her Seattle roots, but her life experiences growing up made her who she is today.

Hutchins is becoming a success in her own right, and her connections to the rich and famous Kar-Jenner family make it easier for her to achieve her goals. She started out life as a baby boy but realized when she got a bit older that she just wasn't at peace in her body. She felt female on the inside.

Her decision to transition was inspired by the transition journey that Caitlyn Jenner took. Sophia Hutchin's story is amazing, and it starts in childhood, so let's turn back the clock now.

12 She Was Brave Enough To Make A Big Change

It takes guts to go on hiatus from college in order to transition, and then to return to college with a whole new image. That's what gutsy Sophia Hutchins did. She used to be known as a male and came back to college as her true, inner self, with the feminine look that she always wanted.

Sophia did worry about being heckled upon her return but had the courage to transition, despite the potential bullying. We only get one shot at life, unless you're a believer in reincarnation, so it's inspiring that Sophia took the reins and became her best self. We can all learn a thing or two from her.

11 She Used To Be Called Scott Hutchins

When Sophia was Scott, Scott was a big cheese on campus at Pepperdine University. Scott Hutchins helped the LGBTQ+ community at his university, by chairing its LGBTQ+ committee.

If you thought Sophia Hutchins was just another hanger-on, who is building a career solely based on knowing the Kardashians, think again. Sophia has a long history of fighting for social justice and also served as SGA Junior Class President at Pepperdine, before resigning to embark on transition.

10 Caitlyn Jenner Became Her Inspiration

Pepperdine is in California, where the Kar-Jenners work and play. However, Sofia (then Scott Hutchins) was inspired by Caitlyn Jenner before becoming a part of Caitlyn's inner circle. Kris Jenner's ex made quite an impact on young Scott and helped him find the bravery to transition. Not that Scott, who is now the beautiful and successful Sophia, didn't have plenty of courage already.

It's nice to know that Caitlyn's been a positive role model for people like Sophia.
