Julia and I have been friends for as long as I can remember, and I was around when Survivors to Superheroes was conceptualized. When Julia asked me a few years ago to join the board as the treasurer I was a bit nervous because of my lack of previous experience, but I was even more excited for the opportunity to work for a cause that is so important not only to me and Julia, but also to the millions of people who have been affected by sexual assault around the world. It was clear that there was a stigma in society surrounding sexual assault, paired with a lack of education for survivors and loved ones.

When I was first given the opportunity to be a part of the Survivors to Superheroes team, the non profit was still in its very early stages. I had just moved to New York for school and had met Julia in a creative writing class we had together. She introduced me to the organization, informed me that they were in search of members, and invited me to join the board.
