By Michael Lew
I have always had the desire and talent to design and make clothes for others. I am fortunate to able to make a living doing this. For over 18 years I have been part of the apparel industry, working for companies and later creating a manufacturing company with my wife, that makes and designs clothes locally and overseas.
For the past 10 years I have been producing and developing apparel product all over the world for many retailers in the USA. Realizing that my attitude was focused only on business and wealth only, I was not able to spend time with my family and I became something that I did not want to be. I traveled all over the world and worked with migrant workers and treated them like machines. It was only about how fast and how cheap I could get my product. Bottom line, “how much do I get out of it?”
