This past weekend, peta2 dove head-first into the nation’s largest and most important electronic music festival—the Electric Daisy Carnival—reminding the hundreds of thousands of attendees that fur is cruel, not cool.
Thanks to our gigantic flat-screen TV and hard-working road team, thousands of people visited our popular booth, where they could text us to pledge to be fur-free and receive a free anti-fur button and Steve Aoki poster. Many also stuck around to watch our undercover exposé of a Chinese fur farm on the big screen, which reminded attendees why it’s never acceptable to wear animal skins.
As is often the case, peta2 was the first and only animal advocacy group to break into this scene, thus reaching an entirely new audience from the crowds we regularly find at Warped Tour and on tour with bands like Rise Against. As EDC proudly stated on its blog, its top priority this year is “empowering and activating [its] fans by way of increasing awareness,” and we were thrilled to be a part of it.
We had a blast dancing the night away, but if you weren’t fortunate enough to see us at EDC, don’t sweat it—because when it comes to dubstep and electronic music, we’re just getting started.

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)
