Bonny Shade November 3rd, 2022 Bonny has some major goals: end campus based sexual violence, empower women, and build better communities. As a professional speaker and researcher in these topics, she provides audiences with real, tangible, and interesting tactics they can use to understand the big picture and impact their communities. Through her keynotes, workshops, and curriculum design, Bonny focuses on education that changes the perspective of her audience members by developing an honest connection and exposing preconceived beliefs before diving in to new material. As a survivor of sexual violence, she fights daily for survivors stories to be heard, believed, and understood. She is telling her own story to empower and educate others. Bonny lives an authentic life and isn't afraid to discuss the uncomfortable topics, stories, or real life scenarios. Her favorite quote is, "there is still much to be done, let us not lose sight," and she uses that concept as a core concept for her work.
