About

As Board Member and Head of Public Relations for the Stop The Traffic Foundation — a Las Vegas–based 501(c)(3) combating child trafficking through storytelling, innovation, and systems-level action — I help lead national awareness campaigns and strategic partnerships that turn advocacy into measurable impact.



Our foundation’s mission is simple yet urgent: Shine a Light. Save Lives. Scale Solutions.


In this role, I oversee communication strategy, media relations, and coalition-building efforts to expand our reach across 20+ states. We collaborate with law enforcement, survivors, and government officials to advance programs such as:


- Lift the Veil (LTV) Program: Advocating for X-ray scanner legislation to identify hidden victims during AMBER Alerts and checkpoints.

- Safe Haven Network: Relaunching Clark County’s Safe Place initiative to train local businesses as safe points for kids in crisis.

- AI Hotline Access: Developing kid-friendly, AI-powered hotline numbers that connect directly to national trafficking hotlines.

- Free Media for Allies: Providing donor-funded production support to under-resourced anti-trafficking nonprofits.


Having had family members personally affected by predatory abuse, this mission is deeply personal to me. I first became involved in the movement in 2020 while covering an event for Operation Underground Railroad, and today, I’m honored to use my media and storytelling background to help expose the truth, protect the vulnerable, and drive real change.
