Get to Know "Hollaback! Boston"

Britni de la Cretaz, Site Director and Events Coordinator
Britni, along with Kate, is one of the founding members of Hollaback! Boston. Britni finds the empowerment of speaking up and fighting back to be quite in line with her naturally feisty disposition and is happy to have the chance to bring the Hollaback! movement to her community. Britni has a Master’s Degree in Mental Health Counseling but prefers doing Social Work. She is an intersectional feminist, activist, former pessimist, dopeless hopefiend, spiritual gangster, and all around super rad chick. She is a firm believer that there is no such thing as too many sequins and that you can never be overdressed. http://hopefiending.wordpress.com

Kate Ziegler, Site Director and Design Coordinator

Her background in International Affairs and Anthropology fuels her belief that addressing root causes – such as the pervasive belief that catcalling is a socially acceptable, non-threatening behavior – is a crucial step in helping everyone feel safer on our streets. Operations Professional by day, Designer by night, Rider of Bicycles in Stilettos – Kate thrives on challenging expectations and keeping people on their toes. http://unionjackcreative.com  http://kateruns.info
