I am a graphic designer, a vegetarian and a wife to my loving husband Shaun. Having worked as a graphic designer for almost 10 years in the printing industry, I see everyday the impact that advertising and media has on our environment. From the endless supply of brochures, business stationary and other sales items that are discarded by the consumer everyday to the impact of commercial printing with the harmful chemicals in the inks and the manufacturing of 'cheap' garments in third world countries, I knew something just had to be done.

LoveCow seemed like the most logical solution. I wanted to focus on small production runs of environmentally produced clothing. All the items are 100% organic and sweat-shop free. On top of this I have used only water based inks which are free from harmful chemicals and I have ensured that the garments are hand-printed. I have kept the packaging minimal, and when I do have to package an item, I have made sure that only recycled materials are used.

Having grown up on a farm, I understand the important role that the environment plays in our life. It is the centre of all that we are, and by preserving this we are paving the path for future generations to come.
