Background

CEO & Founder

"Shine bright,
and know that you are never alone.

Our journey has been inspired by the resilience of survivors and your unwavering support. It's your commitment that allows us to work towards a future where abuse is preventable, survivors are met with compassion, and communities are empowered to drive transformation. I invite you to join us in making a lasting difference for those who need it most. Thank you for being a part of our Torchlight family.

In my own life, I experienced the harsh reality of an abusive marriage, which has shaped my mission today: Saving Survivors. Sharing my story of domestic violence has given me a deep understanding of the struggles many face. "If it could happen to me, it could happen to any of us, " is a truth that echoes throughout my journey. Making the decision to break free wasn’t easy, but it led me to launch the Torchlight Foundation. We stand with every survivor, supporting you every step of the way.
