About Marty Thomas
Founder, LLMA Ventures LLC
Marty Thomas is the founder of LLMA (Life and Love Made Authentic) and the creator of llma.app — the world's first dedicated platform for intentional partnerships, including lavender marriages.
A former Sysco executive who spent years championing LGBTQ+ inclusion in corporate America, Marty went public about his own lavender marriage with his wife Brandi on TikTok in 2025. The internet responded with 80 million views.
What started as radical transparency became a movement. Marty's content — chronicling his chosen family with Brandi, their daughter Londyn, and their French Bulldog Dior in Gilbert, Arizona — attracted 170,000+ followers and thousands of daily messages from people who finally felt seen. He built LLMA because no platform existed for this community.
