To live Eco-Conscious, Become Human Conscious

We are currently living in a world where we have become so consumed by instant gratification that we neglect to understand the true cost of obtaining our daily luxuries. People seem to be worried about getting to the next location without ceasing to live in the current moment and appreciate where they are, that there is no thought to the harm that their daily interactions with the earth are truly causing. To live Eco-friendly, you are choosing to live with the intention of making a positive impact in the environment around you through your daily interactions with the world to protect the natural capacity we call home as well as the living beings who inhabit it. Current events are the prime example of the situational outcome when negligence to view all people as human beings may be the most harm we could produce on this planet.

Another step in the right direction, I took a full time management position with ANGL clothing, a Los Angeles-based clothing brand. I haven't worked retail, full-time since I left Pennsylvania, so I am super excited to start this journey.  I am also building a YouTube platform where I am
