Our Story

 

 

I wanted to thank you for stopping by Our Fellow Creatures! Our Fellow Creatures started from a desire to create a brand with powerful messages that educate individuals on the magnificence of animals. 

From a young age, I felt that I had a deep connection to all animals. Whether it was taking a hurt bird to the wildlife center, releasing a trapped fly, or caring for multiple feral cats outside my home, I seemed to empathize deeply with the pain experienced by animals–no matter the species. However, I convinced myself that I needed to eat meat for a “complete” diet or become protein deficient. I became accustomed to going to the supermarket and seeing illustrations of smiling farmers and animals on neatly packaged cuts of meat and cartons of milk. Over the years since becoming vegan, I always think about how I could use my skills and background as a designer to help communities and individuals understand the impact that our food and lifestyle choices have on the welfare of animals.

My goal in creating Our Fellow Creatures is to shine a light on the incredible animals we share our planet with by using storytelling and design to inspire others to join this mission towards a more humane and respectful world. 

Thank you so much for all you do for the animals!
