The most important thing for me is looking at my two children and knowing that everything I do is for them – they are the generation of tomorrow. For me, having a purpose in my job is non-negotiable.I want to see circularity taking more and more space in public conversations and I want brands to start entering circularity across the world to create more impact globally. I also want to start seeing more policymakers talking about the topic.
I became interested in sustainability, and climate change in particular, when I was working on an urban farm in Cape Town, South Africa in college. I saw how directly people relied on the land for food and how that was getting harder and harder each year, particularly as access to water became more scarce.
