I’m a big fan of the DIY movement because industrialism cannot be sustainable. If we truly care about protecting our earth than we must reduce our consumption. The amount of energy and resources it takes to power factories and labs and then ship products all over the world is devastating on the environment and ultimately us.

I like making my own products because I can control what goes into them. I can source local ingredients and materials and support businesses that are transparent about their labor and environmental practices. It’s also fun and allows me to be creative and feel accomplished.

People often credit my passion for DIY from being a capricorn, regardless of my zodiac sign, I love learning new skills for myself but I know not everyone has the same resources and level of compulsiveness.  Sometimes starting a new project or hobby can feel overwhelming, especially with the immense amount of misinformation circulating on the internet. That’s why I’ve challenged myself to overcome my impostor syndrome and begin teaching workshops on some of the skills I have acquired.

I want to share my knowledge and understanding so we can work together to make the world a better place. Join one of my upcoming DIY workshops so we can overthrow capitalism together!
