Helping Girls Stay Safe Online
About Me
My name is Shruti Sangani
Hi, my name is Shruti, and I am a high school senior at Rock Ridge High School in Ashburn, Virginia.
I am passionate about helping others, learning about healthcare, and making a positive impact in my community.
Through my experiences as a Kumon instructor, I have worked with younger students and helped them build confidence in math and English. I have also completed 30+ hours of medical shadowing in neonatology, pediatrics, and family medicine, which taught me the importance of care, awareness, and communication.
I created CyberSafeGirls.com because I want to help teen girls feel safer, smarter, and more confident online. As a teen myself, I understand how much of our lives happen on the internet. My goal is to educate girls about online safety, digital rights, privacy, and what to do when they face cyberbullying or online harassment.
I believe every girl deserves to feel protected, informed, and empowered in the digital world.
