GIVING BACK
I am a staunch believer in giving back to better the world around us. Simply by living, we are adding to the chaos and unrest in the world, including the products we purchase and use every day down to the way we speak and act toward one another. I try to live with authenticity and a belief that the world is an innately good place, and I aim to pay-it-forward whenever I can.
Since 2019 I've been donating a portion of my revenue to different organizations that fit into my business and personal ethos.
