As a young fashion graduate in the early 90’s, I established Eco Clothing which was an environmentally friendly and ethically produced clothing label. The made-to-order model and party plan sales approach, minimised waste and raised awareness about the negative impacts of fast fashion.

After ten years, I shifted my focus to raising three children while applying my knowledge and skills to education, landscaping and residential building & design. In more recent years I have reignited my passion for both people and planet through my academic studies in behavioural science and social justice.

It is from here that I now intend to use my energy and resources in address the significant environmental and social problems facing the clothing & textile industry today. My new initiative ‘To the Power of You’ has been specifically formed to facilitate consumer behavioural change and to nurture micro producers dedicated to slow fashion principles. I hope you will join me on this journey and bring all of your capacity as a change maker to addressing the harms of the current clothing and textile systems.
