After founding Yoursphere Media, Inc., Yoursphere was created with the direct input and involvement of young people around the world. Yoursphere authentically represents the voices, interests, talents and aspirations of young people. This global community is a platform that allows anyone to create, connect and share their thoughts, ideas, social interactions, friendships and interests with the world through “spheres”. As a result, Yoursphere has become a social platform for youth brands including Skechers and Simon & Schuster titles.

Yoursphere for Parents helps bridge the digital literacy gap between parents and their children by providing how-to’s, tools and information that empower parents to help their families have a healthy and positive online experience.

Yoursphere Media’s education nonprofit, The Yoursphere Media Foundation and Coalition for Internet Safety Education and Reform or FCISER, engages community educators and industry leaders in empowering schools and families with healthy digital solutions.

Yoursphere Media, Inc. has expanded with its new division, Connectu Media. Connectu which provides white-labeled communications apps for companies, organizations, clubs, associations, shopping malls, teams and more.

Shine, Dr. Laura.com, Wellness.com and many other family-focused websites as the go-to social media and digital safety expert for millions of parents.

Parents often lack the knowledge and digital literacy skills that are vital to ensuring a positive and healthy digital experience for their children. Inspired by families like hers, and her then 12-year old daughter who unintentionally put herself at risk online, Mary Kay has dedicated her efforts to providing solutions for families through her work at Yoursphere Media, Inc.

Mary Kay received the national Hall of Heroes Award for her commitment to 21st century digital safety, responsibility and awareness. She also joined ABC 20/20’s “We Find Them” team as a “Web Avenger,” and has been an ABC News contributor by writing articles that educate and inform the public about Internet realities.

Yoursphere has received the PTPA (Parent Tested, Parent Approved) Best Product Award, as well as the National Mom’s Choice Award for “excellence in family-friendly media products and services.”

After these successes, Yoursphere Media, Inc. expanded with its education nonprofit The Yoursphere Media Foundation and Coalition for Internet Safety Education and Reform (FCISER). FCISER is dedicated to creating a network of community educators that provide children, their parents, schools and communities, with the necessary skills, knowledge and tools they need to have a positive and safer digital experience.
