My organization is the first nonprofit law center in the country solely focused on the legal needs of sexual assault survivors. Our legal services are free. The VRLC was founded in Boston and now we have 4 offices in Massachusetts, 1 in Portland, Oregon, and 3 national training programs. I am a sexual assault survivor, lawyer, and activist. Using my legal skills to help survivors has been a dream come true!

What is something that not many people know about you?
I’m kind of an open book. Being a sexual assault survivor, many people have connected with me over the years, and there is a real desire to have an authentic connection. I try to share as much of myself as I can while also protecting my own heart.
