Gabriella Kreuz, the founder of “Love Doesn’t Shove,” presented to the Ursuline High School student body on Tuesday, February 12 at 9:00 AM and 10:15 AM in the Deibel Morley Arts Center on campus. Kreuz weaves her quirky personality into Love Doesn’t Shove presentations to set a more upbeat tone to the traditionally “dark” dating violence conversation, all while being informative. Using her own experiences of violence as spring board for an interactive dialogue, Kreuz aims to bring awareness, education and helpful resources to those in need. She started Love Doesn’t Shove as a teen dating violence awareness campaign during her senior year at John Carroll University.

Kreuz is a freelance broadcast and commercial talent in the Cleveland area. She can be found dabbling in a number of gigs, from in-park hosting for the Cleveland Indians, to quizzing sports fans on Fox Sports Ohio’s BeerMoney trivia show. She has been recognized by Crain’s Cleveland Business and Cleveland Magazine.
