Looking to partner with my alter-ego @movefatgirl?

Ok, so this is probably my primary ego, and my alter ego is the one that wears hard pants to work.

@movefatgirl is an Instagram account dedicated to the experiences, joys, challenges, frustrations, and wins involved with being a fat/plus-sized/large-bodied athlete. I am also autistic, asthmatic, and have some musculoskeletal issues, and I frequently talk about the intersection of those experiences with sports/athletics/outdoor play. I am passionate about ocean conservation, land stewardship, and fighting climate change, justice, equity, and inclusion, so sometimes those topics come up, too!

I am now venturing into brand partnerships! It’s still a relatively new thing for me, but as someone who’s worked in social media for businesses and organizations for over a decade, I like to think I know what I’m doing?

I primarily produce relatively unpolished, casual, authentic content that sometimes has curse words.

What sort of partnerships am I interested in?

  • I’d love to partner with brands who are taking intentional steps to create more size inclusivity in outdoor and athletic spaces.

  • I only want to partner with brands that will allow me to be honest about my experiences with their products or services. I will always be kind—but clear and honest, too. This might look like me saying things like, “This isn’t the product for me… but it might be the product for you if…” or “I really love this piece! But also want to acknowledge that this brand only goes up to size 3X, which is a good start—but not fully size-inclusive.”

  • While I am open to collaborating with brands that involve gear/kit/apparel that are a little bit outside of my core sports/adventures (hockey, paddle boarding, surfing, kayaking, swimming, car camping, occasional hiking)—I think it makes more sense for me to focus on brands that do something related to that list of stuff I do!

  • I only plan to partner with brands that I have shared values with, including but not limited to a commitment to: body acceptance/neutrality (no weight loss or fitspo!), diversity, inclusion, environmental stewardship (no fast fashion!), everyone is worthy of love, dignity, and respect.

Still interested in partnering with me? Hit me up.


Current Partnerships


Brand Ambassador

I became a VOITED brand ambassador after purchasing a changing robe—and loving it. I love that they acknowledged the need for more body diversity in their representation, and focus on eco-conscious production.

Hakuna Wear Labs

I have been working on designing a swim suit for the Hakuna Labs program—a swimsuit that I hope will be a functional, inclusive option for women who are active in their swimwear. I am super excited to team up with Hakuna on this—especially since they focus on sustainable fashion.

Other Brand Work

Smartwool

When Smartwool expanded to include some extended sizes in their line, they sent me a box of goodies to try out.
