About Me
I’m Liberty Doll, and I believe all human interactions should be free from the use of force and coercion. I believe in free speech, free markets, and free people.
My childhood goal was to be a writer. My adult goal is to help educate people on the ideas and fundamental principles of liberty, while also calling attention to real-world issues that put those ideas at risk. “Liberty Doll” was first created as a Facebook page in 2013 as a means to bring both of those goals together (and because my friends and family were sick of seeing it in their newsfeeds). Eventually I started a Wordpress website and blog and, after enough people requested videos, moved on to YouTube.
At first, those videos were taken on my laptop’s webcam, with me scrunched under a table lamp in front of a blank wall. Later, I migrated to the living room floor, surrounded by construction lamps that gave off a burning smell and sometimes even let off a little smoke.
A couple of stints as a guest on a weekly podcast and, later, a co-host spot with some folks from the Gary Johnson campaign, finally convinced me that I might just have enough to talk about to do my own weekly videos and, eventually, even a regular livestream (whoa!). I eventually even built up a Patreon, allowing me to upgrade my equipment and stop risking burning my house down. A real camera, mic, and studio lighting were a pleasant addition to the “Liberty Doll” brand and have allowed me to create the content you see today.
I’ve also had the honor and privilege of speaking on a panel about gun rights and mental health at Porcfest 2014, spoke at the 2017 Libertarian State Convention in Massachusetts, and have appeared on the Tom Woods Show, Penn State radio, as well as a number of other outlets.
Politics can be divisive, and I’ve lost friends and family along the way - not everyone is ready, willing, or able to think about freedom and what that means. For some people, the ideas of freedom and liberty are downright frightening. But today, thanks to you, the viewer, listener, or reader, I’m able to reach thousands (maybe even hundreds of thousands!) of people and give them the tools and knowledge to start their own journeys. And sometimes, standing for what you believe in - and finding people to stand with you - is more important.
