About Me I am a mother and a wife who is committed to the liberation of animals. My current situation is one of transformation, as I disengage from my typically American housewife ways. I have always been concerned and somewhat mindful of the environment but have recently experienced a major shift. The activist is me has been awakened and I feel very compelled to do what I can to champion for animals and the environment, without being too radical. I want to remain connected to contemporary society so I can be of influence instead of viewed as crazy and ignored. I have mad respect for people who have chosen to completely live it but I am still transitioning and am trying to give myself some breathing room to make sure I do it right. I have changed my and my sons' diet to vegan and we around 75% raw, although I try not to label us as such...it seems the label scares people more than anything sometimes.

It is my desire to network and connect with others who share my passion in this area, in order to expand my experience, influence, and results.
