I am passionate about educating individuals on the benefits of healthy lighting, as well as being a human rights activist to end coercive schooling and forced psychiatric treatment. School facilities, psychiatric hospitals, nursing homes, and prisons often provide the people they hold captive with suboptimal, detrimental lighting. Tunable, human-centric lighting products offer tremendous health benefits to these individuals, and the proceeds go to fund my activism efforts in human liberation.
