I felt instantly drawn to this project because I am both a vegan and an activist! On a personal level, I'd love to take part in this project since it's so close to my heart and my values. My first experience on journalism was through Harper's Bazaar, and although I learned a lot, I didn't feel connected to the content I was writing. I really like fashion, but I didn't feel comfortable promoting a part of the industry that is not committed to sustainability and social responsibility. Besides, because the magazine stands very neutral in social issues (at least in Mexico), I felt like so many things were being dismissed, consequently ignoring subjects that are shaking up the world and even reinforcing those that are hurtful in some way. Since then, I've wanted to participate in some kind of platform that involves fashion, culture and real issues in a conscious, ethical way. I'm am also a self-declared foodie who is very concerned with nutrition, and I'd love to contribute with articles that comprise healthy and mindful eating, body-positive content and even recipes.
So, if you need someone passionate for the causes that this project entails, I'd love to be of service!
Really looking forward to hear from you soon!
