About Me: 
How I became a veggie: Veggie-ism chose me. My love for animals could not be ignored.
I was raised on a farm and learned to appreciate animals for themselves not for what we can utilize from them. I was 13 y.o when I became vegetarian. I was the only vegetarian I knew in my 100% mormon community and I was criticized and harrassed by friends and family. Adults were the worst. I wanted to become vegan (I didn't know the word "vegan" yet) and I knew there was a reason for it. I was always the only veg I knew throughout my teens and there was no support system for my lifestyle. At 22, I started to read "A Diet for a New America" and became vegan halfway through the book and I have never looked back. I am involved in animal rights in Utah because I witnessed animal abuse by my brothers as a child and it has deeply affected me and my relationship with animals. I have an undying compassion for all animals and I want to protect them from evil humans!
