Media Personality, Sacred Social Activist, Environmental Accountability Advocate, writer, 'sometimes' singer, funster and 'all the time' Myth Buster. Born in Chicago, and growing up in various parts of the US and South Africa, Sunny was exposed to many cultures and traditions including spending time with the Bushman "Kwe" of the Kalahari Desert. Years later, through many life experiences and family opportunities she was exposed to, she saw the world from multifaceted perspectives. Her extended family were activists and advocates of cultural, societal and environmental change through art, literature, travel, music and politics. The family dinner table guests were often policy, entertainment and cultural shapers of the day. Chayes got her activism myth busting chops from having a "front row seat".
