Our Team

Carolyn Kossow (she/they) is a gender, queer, and racial justice activist based in Brooklyn, NY. She received both her Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees in Gender Studies (London School of Economics and Hamilton College, respectively) and is dedicated to a life and career advocating for social justice. 

Carolyn has enjoyed the flexibility and diversity of being able to support the work of several mission-driven organizations: nonprofits, start-ups, small business, and global companies alike.

Carolyn’s work and research has utilized critical-race, queer, and feminist theories to examine reproductive health injustices worldwide with specific focus on racism and classism within assisted reproductive technologies (i.e., egg donation and surrogacy). She has worked in several nonprofits and start-ups advocating for economic, racial, LGBTQ, and gender justice at a local and global scale. 

Carolyn’s dream is to advocate for social justice, specifically supporting reproductive justice, LGBTQ rights, and anti-racist initiatives, through progressive communications, advocacy initiatives, and education. 

In her free time, Carolyn loves playing acoustic guitar, practicing yoga, drinking tea, and reading fiction that centers polyamory, queer, sex-positive, and feminist themes.
