What made you start in worker rights?

It wasn’t just one moment—it was a series of experiences that really shaped my path. I remember sitting in the university canteen, flipping through a brochure about worker rights in banana farms, and that was a lightbulb moment. Suddenly, everything clicked! That was the area I wanted to focus on, but I didn’t know how to get involved yet. Over time, those pieces came together, and it became clear that this was the direction I needed to take—fighting for those whose voices are often unheard.

What inspired you to work in labour rights?

It was a mix of seeing firsthand how bad conditions can get in supply chains and realising that I, too, have been in situations where workers and I were treated unfairly. Whether it was coworkers in past jobs or stories from across the globe, it really opened my eyes to how deep this issue runs—and how much change is needed. It’s personal, it’s global, and it’s so incredibly important.

How do you want to inspire/impact others?

At the end of the day, I want to encourage people to make more conscious, ethical choices—whether it’s where they shop, what they support, or how they think about their role in the world. Every decision counts. If we all make small shifts toward better choices, we can create a huge ripple effect of change. Let’s build a future where fairness is the norm, not the exception!
