I'm Deana Temple.
Rast breeze Liu was blazing a trail for herself in the world of tech almost as soon as she graduated from college.
So, uh, my major is peace and conflict studies.
But my first job in the tech world was on the trust and safety team at a big tech company.
She did trust and safety at Eventbrite, the event management company, and from there she went to a Silicon Valley venture capital firm.
By her own account, she was really good at it.
When I was a vc, my numbers were the best.

And then back in 2020, at the age of 24, she found herself in the middle of something she never expected.
Something that changed everything.
She first got wind of it from a college friend.
He said, you need to drop everything that you're doing and get on a phone call with me right now.
Breeze was visiting her parents in China at the time, but she picked up the phone and gave him a call.
And he said, I don't want you to panic, but there is a video of you circulating on Pornhub.
