Michelle is a Actress...
Michelle left her position with Young Vision Africa in August 2016 to focus her efforts on ending domestic violence. Her desire to help victims of domestic abuse came from personal experience in such a relationship. Michelle was with her assailant for three years where she endured physical, sexual, emotional and financial abuse. Michelle wrote, produced and performed a critically acclaimed play about her experience entitled But I Love Him. The play debuted at the largest Solo Festival on the West Coast, The White Fire SoloFest, with a nearly sold out performance in February 2016. The show, also staged in the 2016 Hollywood Fringe Festival, received multiple reviews and commendations.
an Author and...
She has since completed and published her personal memoir with the same title as her play. But I Love Him is a painful yet inspirational true story of a strong, independent woman caught in the horrifying cycle of domestic violence and how she got out. In this book, she shares the details of her struggle with genuine honesty, taking the reader on a twisted journey of love, pain and unyielding brutality that eventually leads…to peace. Mixing statistics, research and resource with her own account (and even some humor), Michelle shows just how far someone in her situation can sink, why it happens and how they can always pick themselves back up. Those who hear her story walk away with a newfound understanding about the horrors of domestic violence, how to escape and how to build a new, healthier life.

Unsilenced Voices is dedicated to empowering survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking through advocacy, education, and support services. The goal is to break the cycle of abuse, provide survivors with a platform to share their stories, reclaim their power, and live a life free of violence.
