"I applied to be part of the Message to have the opportunity to discuss topics that are important to me as an individual with a large group of people, especially with young women like myself.
"Creating the Message was a lot of fun but also very easy as all the ideas came from the group and I think this contributed to a very powerful message. The experience gave me confidence to be able to discuss uncomfortable things with people where it is important and appropriate to create a better community around me.
"I am committed to being a voice for all who need it and also to be a listener at all times."
