Susanna Gibson is a nationally recognized advocate and leading voice on image-based abuse and technology-facilitated violence. A nurse practitioner by training, she entered public life when intimate images of her were illegally created and exploited during her Virginia legislative race. Determined that no one else should have to endure what she did, she transformed her experience into advocacy and founded MyOwn Image, a survivor-centered organization advancing support, education, and policy reform. Her work has shaped bipartisan legislation across the country and informed national conversations about consent, online abuse, and the urgent need for modern legal protections.
Gibson now speaks across the country about consent, modernizing laws for the digital age, and the power of reclaiming your narrative. She collaborates with survivors, lawmakers, and civil society leaders to advance stronger protections and trauma-informed approaches to digital sexual abuse.
