I have been a longtime fan of People Tree (the UK’s oldest ethical fashion brand), and I got the fun chance to choose an outfit and model it. I featured the ensemble on Eco-Chick, and People Tree also chose to highlight me in their fun quarterly magazine, The Eco Edit.

Check out my first contribution to Conde Nast Traveler: “Italy’s Free Coffee Tradition and Other Acts of Kindness” What an inspiring way to start the New Year!
As a long-term environmentalist, I have followed Paul Hawken’s work with interest for some time. Though I don’t always agree with him on every issue, I admire his forward-thinking writing and his new project, Drawdown, sounds amazing.

I took a deep dive into feminism, the law and the real-life repercussions of domestic violence on both the battered and the batterers for Pacific Standard. A difficult, intense article to research and write, but fascinating.
My line of original photographs printed on organic cotton fabrics is now available on Ecohabitude. I’d love your support for my project and they DO make great holiday gifts!
