Hi, I'm Aiko and I am the founder of MOnthly. I'm fuelled by my passion to help and advocate for marginalized people. Realizing a lack of education and action regarding period poverty in #Mobile, I was inspired to create MOnthly. MOnthly has been such a blessing and has helped me connect with many amazing people and organizations. My hope is that MOnthly will be able to help women and girls in our community long-term!
Outside of MOnthly, I am an adult ballet goer, second-hand shopper, and lover of cartoons and animation. *I’m obsessed with Studio Ghibli* I am also a recent Spring Hill College graduate with a B.A. in English and Sociology with a minor in Gender Studies. Currently I’m learning French and how to make my own clothes! For fun, I love to be in the sun, go on picnics, travel, learn, and take on new experiences. Since 2019, I have lived between Mobile and the UK, but I am happy to be home, surrounded by my family and becoming more tuned into Mobile again.
