Meet the Staff

Vivian Welch

Vivian, 15, having grown up with a voice teacher for a dad and a Broadway performer for a mom, has a great appreciation for the arts and creativity. She also appreciates all things grand and sparkly. Whether accessory, clothing item or nail polish, Vivian will indulge in just about anything that sparkles. Her growing passion for writing has led her to think about pursuing screenwriting; she has already written an over 300-page screenplay! As a staff member at Sex, Etc., Vivian aims to help eliminate the taboo surrounding sex education and remind teens that it’s OK to not have it all figured out when it comes to understanding their bodies. She’s excited to gain more professional writing experience and discuss topics ranging from self-love to society’s narrow messages about how bodies should look. Vivian hopes to be a voice for teens who are seeking accurate information about their bodies and health.
