last week i gave a lightning talk to 40+ women in computer science + early-career professionals at Rewriting The Code

cultivating sovereignty and stewardship // https://fevenm.substack.com // https://x.com/notfeven

we spoke about textile sovereignty and sustainability and how it isn’t just about fabric, It’s about reclaiming agency. 

in what we wear, what we support, and how we care for ourselves and our ecosystems.

the conversation was full of thoughtful questions around affordability, smart insights on consumer behavior, and creative feature requests for the tool

grateful for the opportunity to share and learn with such a thoughtful group of young women 🥺🙏🏿

i shared my work on the Wardrobe Sustainability Calculator — a tool to:

👕 audit your closet
🧪 count synthetic fibers
📆 build a personalized sustainable transition plan
🌿 rooted in long-term wear-ability + natural materials
