Nik Koyama (an entrepreneur) and I are trying to put together a video to help spread awareness. This video will include a girl who is missing in Orcutt, we want to make a difference in the community and I believe I am speaking for both of when I say we feel the need to help the community.
I grew up here in Orcutt and to hear that a young woman my age is missing, it hurts. I love this community and hate that this has happened, but as I have been saying, this can happen to anyone, even in the safest communities.
Do you think we can make a difference?

Look At My Brain
Being in classroom and being told you can build your own cariculum as a student is mind blowing but what is even more spectacular is that my cariculum is about sex trafficking. To be completely honest it's something I've been passionate about for years and being able to put my passion into school helps me want to do the work in class.
Currently I am working with a brilliant man named Nik Koyama and we are making a video to benefit a girl who is missing in Orcutt, Ca. This video will also help me expand my sources when I can finally make the shelter I want to build for the victims of sex trafficking.
Welcome to my mind feel free to explore.

Raising Digital Awareness
Having many people on my site means a lot to me because I'm trying to build awareness towards the severe issue of sex trafficking.
So far I have provided not only my opinions, but facts and sources to credit my points as well. I am not trying to please a specific individual, I am merely stating facts and what I would like to do to better the United States.
In order to make this blog better I must be consistent as well as provide accurate and interesting information so people want to come back and see what else is happening and hopefully want to help in my efforts to stop sex trafficking.
In general I believe that human ideas are more important than media/ tools because you can have all the tools in the world but if you don't know how to use them or don't have the ideas to better then what is the point of living? I live to make the world a better place, starting with ending sex trafficking.

THIS IS ONLY A TEST!
What is sex trafficking?
Who does sex trafficking affect?
How can I help stop this crime?
Sex trafficking is when minors are forced into sexual acts for money, much like prostitution, but the victims ate not willing to participate.
Sex trafficking can happen to anyone, rich or poor, smart or under educated.
Imagine it were your sister, your daughter, would you want her to have to fear walking hone alone after a football game?
You can do something to help, spreading awareness is the first step. Tell people you know about this horrible crime and do your part. By doing that you could save a little girls life, who knows it may be your sister's or your daughter's. It's worth the risk, take that first step towards a better world.

Testing my Skills
Instead of being handed a traditional test I would love to have my test be a speech. I am much more comfortable just talking about sex trafficking then writing on a blog about it because I feel like I'm not making an impact, but if I spoke, at least I know people ate listening. I would speak about my over all knowledge as well as some personal testimonies I have heard and read.

Startling Facts
http://courageworldwide.org/the-problem/
The current issues in society range, but sex trafficking has to be the highest on my list. Men are purchasing their daughters, it makes me sick just thinking about it. This repulsive industry needs to be stopped as soon as possible, not for my sake, but for those girls.
