About

Sustainability advocate and community builder who is passionate about creating eco-friendly solutions that unite people. I founded Swap and Hop, a clothing swap initiative, to promote sustainable fashion and foster meaningful connections. With experience in outreach and environmental research, I enjoy collaborating on projects that inspire action and positive change. In my free time, I love exploring nature, staying involved in my community, and studying up-and-coming consumer brands—their marketing, history, and what makes them stand out.
