Molly has over 10 years of professional experience working on and in support of college campuses. She has held 2 different on-campus roles, the first as a Sexual Violence Support Services Coordinator and the second as the director of a Women's Center. While the institutions were quite different, the urgent need to proactively and intentionally address the issues of sexual violence and its impact on the community - comprehensively, holistically and with an emphasis on trauma-informed care - were similar.

Molly firmly believes that empowering the whole community - students, staff, faculty alike, campus efforts to address and end sexual violence will be most effective. During her time on both campuses she worked closely with student groups, survivors, staff, administrators and surrounding community members to design and expand initiatives to collectively and creatively end the silence surrounding sexual violence and open the way for social change.

Molly has extensive experience training, supervising, supporting and presenting for student leaders including;  sexual health & wellness clubs, survivor support groups, Fraternity and Sorority members, Resident Assistants and housing staff members, student athletes, student government, and more. She has presented on a range of topics related to sexual violence, consent, rape culture, sexual harassment, holistic healing, yoga for healing, post-traumatic stress and building out trauma-informed response systems for students, staff, faculty and administrators.

She has been a guest lecturer in various academic departments, even prior to her campus employment, including: Gender, Sexuality and Women's Studies, Criminology & Criminal Justice, University Studies Seminars, Psychology, Religious Studies, International Studies, Peace & Conflict Studies, Nursing Schools, Medical Residents, and more. 

As a survivor herself who navigated the various criminal justice and medical systems, and also worked as a Medical and Legal Advocate for children and adult survivors, she has experience training law enforcement and Emergency Room staff and personnel on the impacts of trauma, trauma-informed interviewing techniques, and other tools to create a safer space to access resources. 

Molly has also been deeply involved with increasing campus engagement, program planning and organizing related to Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Sexual Assault Awareness Month, Take Back the Night, One Billion Rising, poetry slams,  a cross-disciplinary Ted Talk style academic Feminist Festival, survivor art installations and more.
