She was appointed to the U.S. National Advisory Council and regularly testifies as an expert witness in court.

A highly sought-after speaker, consultant, and nationally recognized authority, Rebecca is passionate about seeing people transform their lives so they can change the world.

Rebecca is a CEO and a published author who has earned a distinct reputation as a trailblazer and thought leader in the anti-human trafficking field.

After escaping her trafficker in 2007, Rebecca was determined to make a new life for herself and her young daughter. She worked hard, eventually opening her own business and earning a Master’s degree.

While she was attending college online, Rebecca dreamed of launching a school for survivors of human trafficking - a place where anyone with lived experience could enroll and learn the skills and

knowledge necessary to build a new life.

In 2014 Elevate Academy was born and within eight years had served nearly 1,100 students in 18 countries and nearly 580 U.S. cities across the nation.

This innovative online school is thriving today and remains a place where survivors continue to connect, grow, and find tools to ignite their futures.
