During her first year of college, Muka was sexually assaulted. Like many others, she didn't report the repeated incidents to the authorities or share her experiences with her loved ones. Rape is a systemic and endemic social disease that affects victims and their loved ones, who often suffer in silence for fear of shame or continued abuse.
Muka started working with non-profit organizations that focus on youth development, community empowerment, and women's rights to take charge of healing and personal growth. Muka is currently creating workforce and student development programs for multicultural high-risk communities.
