I believe my rights have been unfairly stripped away due to a series of unfortunate events.

Here’s what I’m fighting for:

• John Volken Academy – Accused of trafficking and exploiting young people under the guise of “faith-based rehabilitation.” I’m working to expose abuses and demand accountability.

• Flying Predator Phenomenon – About a man in my local area who has sexually harassed at least 18 women, including rape, stalking, and other abusive behaviors. Tragically, two of the women have died by suicide, and others have shared suicide attempts. He’s extremely dangerous, and I’m working to expose him.

• Investigate American Addiction Centers – Holding addiction treatment centers accountable for neglect, mistreatment, and unsafe practices.

• Williamsville Wellness – Addressing cases of misconduct, abuse, and systemic problems in wellness and care programs.

• In 2019, after being questioned by agents over a social media post, I was indicted. It completely upended my life. It’s taken years to rebuild and recover—years that included homelessness, fear, and fighting to be treated with basic dignity. I repeatedly asked to work with a female officer because of the intimidation I experienced from male agents, but my requests were ignored.

  The fallout from that time was devastating. I lost my job and lived without stable housing for a summer, in unsafe conditions. During that same period, I was targeted and harmed by people who took advantage of my vulnerability. Despite reporting these incidents, authorities failed to take meaningful action. Sadly, I’ve since learned that this pattern—of dismissing reports from women who aren’t “connected” to the system—is all too common.

  In 2020, I faced another assault and threat from a local individual, which was again reported and ignored. I’ve continued to speak out, sharing my story publicly to raise awareness of how easily victims are silenced and how little accountability exists for those in power.

  It’s sickening to see how easily high-profile individuals escape scrutiny while ordinary people are left to fend for themselves. My experiences have made me painfully aware of how broken and unjust our systems truly are.

• I believe that some of the poor choices I made over the years—letting my emotions rule and being overly trusting—were heavily influenced by the effects of psychotropic medications. These were prescribed by a therapist who, at age 16, made inappropriate comments about me and insisted I stay on SSRIs and other medications. Her intrusive role in my life, acting like a triangulated third parent, caused lasting harm.

  Part of my mission now is to raise awareness about the risks of these medications, including black box warnings, and the serious damage they can cause when misused or prescribed without proper care.

• I believe the tendency to overprescribe psychotropic medications often overlooks underlying issues that aren’t simply “depression.” For some, medication can help—but for others, it may dull their instincts or erode the social and emotional “rudder” that helps them navigate the world. It can leave people feeling constantly “fuzzy” or disconnected, which is how I felt for years, especially combined with the stimulating effects of medications like Adderall.
