How did you first get involved with KROST?

It wasn't until the summer after graduating that I realized what I wanted to do as a career. Hobbies and side hustles, including building my own brand, is what I spent my free time on outside of my everyday 9-5. I didn't mind the late nights, the slow results or the stress becasue I knew I was setting myself up for something that will come, eventually. One day, a friend of mine had reposted the brand to his IG story which led to me surfing Krost's page and instantly sparking my interest. I first became involved with the brand through the Weekly Community Sessions that were being hosted by the team during the peak of COVID-19. After around 7-8 Community sessions, I felt confident enough in the relationship I had built with Sam and reached out to him directly with my portfolio. After a few meetings and my proven dedication to the mission, I was brought onboard.

What makes you believe in the mission of the brand?

Previously, from an outside perspective, I was really drawn in by how much the team really cares about these causes and makes an effort to use their platform to spark change. But it wasn't until I was a part of the team that made me realize, these individuals are doing whatever it takes to make sure change is made. You are who you surround yourself with and being around such warmhearted individuals makes me believe in the brand.

What helps take your mind off of things?

Laughing with people I love really allows me to forget about everything happening around me and focus on the present. It helps me realize that in that exact moment, I'm happy.
