What led you to where you are today?
After I heard about the environmental impact of toilet paper, I realized that most of the eco-friendly brands out there didn't feel great. I set out to create a brand that felt as amazing as it was eco-friendly.
What do you wish you knew before embarking on your entrepreneurial journey?
That things take longer than you think they will!
What is the most difficult decision you've had to make regarding your business so far?
Lots of difficult decisions, but several times already I've had to end our relationship with a freelancer or agency that wasn't a good fit.
What can you help the VEGPRENEUR community with?
Support, encouragement, and camaraderie!
