Alisha is a mother to two boys and seasoned project manager. She studied athletic medicine and played volleyball in college. After graduation, she joined the Army as a Combat Medic where she assisted the Army and Air Force with routine health and combat readiness. After she separated, she launched a business creating and selling custom cakes so she could stay at home with her boys while they were young. Once the youngest entered school, she began her current career path in the financial services industry. She currently implements the US product offering for an international financial technology company.
Alisha has been involved with online and in-person atheist spaces since 2012. She has volunteered for many events, served as moderator for multiple spaces, and worked for a few of our community’s popular podcasts.
Alisha is also a domestic violence survivor both as a child and an adult. In her personal time, she helps step people out of abusive relationships and connects them with resources in their area. She wants to bring that experience to this organization by educating creators about abuse before they cause harm, promoting positive and enthusiastic consent as the standard, establishing codes of conduct in social and parasocial spaces, providing resources and support to victims, and creating meaningful consequences for creators that victimize our community members.
