Up until a few years ago, my life was pretty straight forward. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in International Management for Business and Information Technology, moved to a big city, started a corporate job as an IT consultant and started building a good career for myself.
Then, in 2019, everything changed. I travelled to London to attend the Surge Official Animal Rights March where I met Ed Winters, one of the most influential animal rights activists, and then continued to Edinburgh where I met Sam Knights, co-author of the extinction rebellion handbook “This is not a drill”.
I left these two encounters feeling more passionate about veganism, animal rights and environmental issues than ever and motivated to make a positive change in this world with my job.
