For our final project at College LaSalle, our team created an ethically & locally made, high-end jewelry company that uses 50% recycled silver in our pieces. I helped contribute to design, photoshoot, and business model decisions, found and contracted the specific skilled workers for the sketch and 3d design aspects, and helped find models and prepare clothing for our photoshoots. IOTA was chosen as the winner of the product design category from industry expert Vita (Vicky) Scalia who is Co-founder and Co-CEO of L'Intervalle shoes.
