Mojdeh

Mo graduated from USC in 2006 with a degree in International Relations.  After graduation, she worked and lived in Honduras.  During her travels, Mo saw how caring about the environment is a way of life in these countries.  Inspired by what she saw, she moved back to Houston with hopes to be apart of the "green" movement and New Living gave her this opportunity.   As New Living's Office Manager, Mo makes sure that the business runs smoothly and efficiently with her organizational skills and vocal leadership. In addition to her hard work at New Living, Mo is a yoga instructor at Body Center.
