"Just look at the statistics. There are 40 Million people who are trafficked...and I just thought to myself. What are the chances that I would know someone?"

For this episode, I was able to connect with an old college friend of mine, Stacey Kurian. It’s so amazing how many old and new friends you can connect with just by starting a podcast! I’m loving it! Stacey and I both went to RPI (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) to study engineering. She now has a degree in Civil Engineering and works for a construction firm in Duchess County, NY.

Stacey first learned about human trafficking when someone from the organization Love146 gave a talk about modern day child slavery. This opened her eyes to horrors that happen throughout the world even in the modern times we live in. Today, she is a active advocate to end human trafficking around the world by wearing a dress and empowering others to do the same. YOU can do anything in a dress.
