2027 +  Illustration

Owner of Haley.Ayana.Art

I started this business project as a way to begin making small products out of my larger illustration work as well as meet people through attending events and exchanging art. My stickers and prints are an exploration of color and fantastical elements.

Owner of GR8T Sports Apparel

GR8T (pronounced like the word great)  is more than just an athletic wear brand; it’s a movement dedicated to bridging the gap between mental and physical performance. By combining activewear with a focus on empowerment, GR8T is reshaping how people view success, self-growth, and fitness. Our brand creates gear that fuels individuals not only through their workouts but through their everyday journey toward becoming their best selves. We believe that when you wear what you believe, you begin to embody it—and that’s when real progress happens.

Owner of Evan Whiteside Original Art

The messages or emotions that I want to share with others through my artwork are happy and joyful while also highlighting the importance and beauty of nature.

2029 + Graphic Design

I want to share the art and enjoyment of crochet with a community of creatives and educate people on the importance of shopping for ethical crochet from small businesses with adequate prices rather than cheap, fast fashion crochet made by overworked and underpaid employees in factories.
