Q: How long have you been interested and practicing sustainability?
I grew up washing out and reusing our ziplock bags and have always had a connection with the Earth. The past few years I have really dove deep into it.

Q: What are some of your favorite *simple* eco practices?
I absolutely love thrifting!! Simple things like no ziplock bags or plastic water bottles are actually so much easier than one thinks!!

Q: Any words of advice for our readers on being more eco?
It doesn’t take one person to do it perfectly, it takes millions to do it imperfectly. Don’t beat yourself up for slipping up, give yourself grace!

I’ve been in love with dinosaurs since I saw Jurassic Park at the age of 3.
