Abstract
Sonia attended Darmouth College, where she studied Economics, Government, and Public Policy. Upon graduating with several honors and recognitions, Sonia worked at an investment bank on Wall Street. Later, her volunteer vacation at a dairy farm turned into the beginning of a global expedition into the deepest, darkest recesses of the animal agriculture industry. Sonia met and befriended farmers, contract growers, executives, and slaughter workers, even living with some of them. The story of her unprecedented quest, Project Animal Farm, aims to make the world a better place for all its inhabitants.
