QUINTINA SONNIE
Program Director
Survivor Leader
Quintina is a Lived Experience Expert of human trafficking who believes that at the core of being a leader is the ability to walk alongside other survivors. She knows the power of choice, and that has given her the strength to teach and empower survivors to choose themselves. As a leader in the anti trafficking movement, she sees that survivors are able to make those decisions and release themselves from exploitation, and helps them see that for themselves.
Quintina is a spiritual guide and energy healer with her own business as a Breathwork Facilitator and Conscious Choice Creator. With her passion for neuroscience, quantum physics and somatic healing, she uses her gifts in tandem to create space for her clients to obtain full transformations, and create Conscious Choice for themselves.
In her free time, she loves to collect crystals, sing, listen to music and podcasts, and spend time barefoot in nature. You will see her with some kind of herbal drink or tincture, roaming around anywhere that has grass, trees or bodies of water.

KAYLA
BRIGHT
Program Director
Survivor Leader
As a survivor of human trafficking, Kayla has found her lane in the anti-trafficking movement as a connector in the community. She believes that survivors hold the power of warriors and wants to create an “army” of survivors that can break the status quo. Building a network of survivors who are economically independent and collaborate together is a key piece of her vision. Being able to provide survivors not only with resources, but actionable steps that puts the power back into their hands to create a new narrative.
Kayla sits on the Board of Directors for both Duke University's “Last Girl Project” as well as Angel Healing, an organization in Florida building a restorative care spa. Her educational background includes Marketing and Communications from West Virginia University with plans to return to school focusing on psychosexual neuroscience.
In her spare time she is designing a fashion line that incorporates the anti-human trafficking agenda, one piece of which was worn by a Miss Face of Humanity finalist.
