Katelynn Pantle (she/her) has a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology, a minor in political science, and a certificate in nonprofit management and social entrepreneurship. Currently, Katelynn is a Project Coordinator and grant writer at MiCreate Inc., a nonprofit who provides legal and business coaching to survivors of human trafficking. In this position she has designed an extensive curriculum for a youth entrepreneurship program which seeks to reduce vulnerabilities for trafficking among at-risk youth. This project is particularly important to her as a child trafficking survivor herself and she is deeply passionate about the opportunity to participate in a preventative program. Although Katelynn is from the Seattle area, she has spent the last 10 years living in Mexico. Through her studies, work with MiCreate, and time abroad, she has become passionate about the issues related to migration across the US-Mexico border and is interested in developing more research about different categories of impacted people. Recently, she wrote a research paper titled "How Visa Regimes Influence Human Trafficking in the United States,” which explores how non-arrival measures contribute to and perpetuate the demand and phenomenon of human trafficking, primarily against undocumented migrants, asylum-seekers, and refugees. She is interested in furthering her learning about immigration and asylum.
