A young woman with red hair wearing headphones, sitting at a microphone in a recording studio.

my story

I have spent my entire educational career learning more about abuse and how to empower survivors of abuse.
I have received certificates, and I have spent years PUBLICLY spreading awareness about human trafficking specifically.
I have only taken on the online world to spread awareness about abuse and give survivors a voice.

styling process

I want the world to feel like they are allowed to address these topics. Oftentimes, we suppress this type of content out of fear. I want to break that wall and give survivors their voice back.

experience

My media is a form of realism. The feeling you get when you are FaceTiming with your best friend while they rave on about the world, making others feel like they can talk about the world's problems.

  • I have been posting online for over a year, and I have loved every second of it.
    I have always wanted to advocate for survivors and those whom society tends to neglect.
    The turning point for me was when a local missing girl in California was found deceased weeks later. I decided then that I wanted to do everything in my power to prevent harm to children - to spread awareness of missing children and the harm that is against them.

  • I have a background in Public Relations, law, journalism, and family and child advocacy.
    I provide trauma-informed analyses of what's happening in modern media from Epstein to human trafficking busts throughout the world.
    I explain current red flags, grooming indicators, survivor psychology, and teach current intelligence/invastigative concepts law enforcement should implement in their districts.
