Magalie Allard

Developer

Canada

In a nutshell...

Thanks to her hippy geeky parents, Magalie got to be vegetarian while growing up, was given her first computer at age 7, became a book worm, and learned to be thankful for all that life sends her way. She speaks French, English, Spanish (un poquito), Japanese (sukoshi).

She has moved over 40 times, but one simply stops counting at some point. She went vegan in 2016 after watching the movie Forks Over Knives. This was the logical next step to continue further down the ecological path.

She lives a minimalist life (video games don’t count!) with her partner Carl, with whom she co-founded Code Bards to offer development services and also make simple online software for people’s well-being with a touch of magic =^_^=

Why do you like being part of the Dirty team?

I don’t like it, I LOVE it! It’s the best team I’ve ever worked with, and we get to help people all around the world discover the power of plants and how this way of eating so wonderfully changes one’s life.

The quality I love most about myself is...

My sense of humour (no, really).

How does eating plants enrich your life?

It has taught me that we all have the means to help the planet and the other people that live on it with this simple choice of what we eat. With the nice side-effect that it’s also good for our own health!
