Kristine Vike acquired her Ph.D. in environmental chemistry in the fall of 2021, by which time she was frustrated by learning how much and how loud scientists have been shouting about our impact on the planet since the 1960s.

Changing tactics rather than adding one more voice to the choir that seems to be largely ignored, Kristine decided instead to focus more on her love for sewing, history, and sustainable living, with the occasional deep-dive into the more scientific side of things with the mandatory addition of imposter syndrome.

She hopes that by learning and showing practical examples of spending fewer resources in a visual and entertaining way, she might inspire others to try similar things. It helps that she has always enjoyed making things and feels most at home when in the process of creating something or other.
