When I became vegan I thought I would have to deprive myself of certain sweets that I loved so much, like caramel and peanut butter cups, but on the contrary!

Like everyone else, I was born naked and screaming, waiting for my life to write itself on my skin.

What's truly important--and what I find myself forgetting and having to relearn--is that right here, right now, I am free. Free to be myself and to express myself.

There is no point in developing anything at the cost of exploiting and abusing animals.

When I became vegan 5 years ago, it was truly eye opening. I think it's all about perspective, really.

Years of cultural programming have taught us to love some animals while eating others, when in all reality, all animals are sentient beings with the capacity to feel, both physically and emotionally.

I got to actually tattoo one of the members of The Misfits. The very first tattoo I ever did was this Misfits skull.
