My Growing
Growing up in the quaint, English-style village of Canterbury, New Hampshire, I was always surrounded by the beauty of nature. My family home, nestled in the heart of the village, was a testament to sustainable living. It was a charming, eco-friendly house, complete with solar panels, a green roof, and energy-efficient systems. We even maintained a small organic vegetable garden, which I loved tending to. This environment, coupled with my family's commitment to sustainability, nurtured my love for the environment from a young age.
As I grew older, my compassion for animals and concern for the environment led me to adopt a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet. I spent a lot of time researching the environmental impact of meat production, ethical considerations of animal welfare, and the health benefits of a vegetarian diet. This decision ignited a passion for nutrition and wellness that would guide my future educational and career choices.
When it was time for me to pursue higher education, I moved to New York City, drawn by its vibrant culture and renowned educational institutions. I attended the prestigious Parsons School of Design, where I earned my Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design, with a focus on sustainable and ethical fashion. My time at Parsons allowed me to gain practical experience through internships and collaborations with leading sustainable fashion brands.
In addition to my interest in sustainable fashion, I discovered a deep love for yoga in New York. Recognizing the positive impact of yoga on my overall well-being, I decided to deepen my practice. I enrolled in a yoga teacher training program at a reputable yoga studio, where I earned my certification as a yoga instructor. This additional training helped me develop a holistic approach to wellness, combining the physical and mental aspects of health.
After completing my studies, I moved to California, where I put my education and skills to use in my professional career. I became a sustainable fashion designer and yoga instructor, and also embarked on a successful modeling career. My unique blend of beauty, commitment to sustainability, and wellness made me a sought-after model, particularly for brands aligned with my values.
Inspired by my experiences and passion for wellness and sustainability, I co-founded EcoZenWel, an online store dedicated to promoting products and services that resonate with my core values. As the brand ambassador, I use my platform to further advocate for the values I hold dear.
Today, I am more than just the face of EcoZenWel; I am also a role model for those seeking to embrace a vibrant, eco-friendly lifestyle. My commitment to wellness and sustainability has earned me a place in the modeling world, and my work with EcoZenWel continues to inspire and empower others to lead a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle. Living in California, a state known for its progressive values and commitment to environmental sustainability, I continue to inspire and empower others to lead a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle.
