Exciting News: Joining the North American Linen Association (NALA) Board of Directors

I am thrilled to announce that I have been appointed as a Board Director for the North American Linen Association (NALA)! This opportunity marks a significant milestone in my journey toward advancing sustainable solutions within the textiles and apparel industry.


Why NALA?

NALA plays a critical role in promoting the growth, innovation, and sustainability of flax and linen across North America. With a strong focus on fostering industry collaboration, education, and advocacy, the organization is at the forefront of supporting regenerative agriculture and responsible fiber sourcing. As a long-time advocate for circular fashion and sustainable textiles, I am honored to contribute to NALA’s mission.


My Role and Vision

As a Board Director, I will leverage my expertise in circular economy principles, sustainable supply chains, and eco-design to:

  • Advocate for increased flax farming in North America, reducing reliance on imports and strengthening regional supply chains.

  • Support regenerative agriculture initiatives that improve soil health and biodiversity.

  • Foster collaborations between brands, suppliers, and industry leaders to accelerate the adoption of responsible linen production.

  • Educate stakeholders on the environmental and economic benefits of linen, a natural, biodegradable, and durable fiber.


Looking Ahead

The demand for sustainable and locally sourced fibers is growing, and linen has the potential to be a game-changer in the movement toward a more regenerative and transparent fashion industry. I am eager to work alongside industry pioneers to drive impactful change and create a more resilient future for textiles.

I look forward to sharing insights, updates, and opportunities to collaborate as I embark on this new chapter. Stay tuned for more developments!

If you’re as passionate about the future of sustainable textiles as I am, let’s connect and explore ways to work together!
