Laurence Yang, a 22 year old French and Korean model has agreed to be a spokesmodel for Green Soul Shoes. She joins the ranks of Yvonne Wang, Miss Green NYC!
In her words, she “would love to be a part of Green Soul shoes!” She loves everything eco-friendly and anything to improve the lives of underprivileged people.
Although she’s an experienced model, she is also currently a Surgical Technologist, who is majoring in Biological Sciences who wants to further her career by becoming a Cardiovascular Perfusionist. We have high hopes for Laurence. Stay tuned to see a lot more from Laurence!

GreenSoul Shoes was invited to give a lecture on Social Entrepreneurship to high school kids from the Prep to Prep program in New York City. These bright and outgoing kids have been picked after a rigorous selection process for a 14-month long after school program. The program covers from advance academics to personal development. During this summer, they are focusing on creating their own business plan. Their business ideas range from a service to convert analog media to digital media for the non-techies to selling vintage dresses. We could see how driven they were! we have no doubt that they will be our future leaders and successful businessmen/women.
