What was your previous (or current other) career, training or background?

BBA Marketing, Founder of Rising Education, fashion stylist, fashion photoshoot production assistant.

What change are you seeking to create through this initiative?

I want to change people’s relationship with clothing. I want clothing to be something thought of as precious, crucial to take care of, [something we can] think critically about (where has it come from?) and cherish, like each item is a true investment. I also want all clothing we bring into our wardrobes to be pre-loved, upcycled, etc. We don’t need any more new clothes.

What does the concept of ‘the greater good’ mean to you?

To me it means making sacrifices in our lives as individuals for the broader benefit of our society and earth. It’s accepting that we cannot and should not have it all.
