Din Terpuni

I like to say I’ve lived three lives. The first begins in the land-locked country of Kosovo. So I did what any kid would do in that situation – I became the lead singer of a death metal band. Cue my second act: HR rep working for the U.S. Armed Forces in Afghanistan. I actually took a liking to my role and got into a routine. That is, until my base was attacked while I was sipping my morning coffee.  Now, here I am, an eager Art Director ready to make my mark. After all, they do say the third time’s the charm.

Ashley Aviles

Ashley’s mom bought her a plush doll which she named him Pinnggen. Pinnggen starred in Ashley’s 5th-grade claymation series ‘Greg and Pinnggen’ which introduced her to the creative world. Slowly, Ashley’s collection grew and her interest in the art industry skyrocketed. Penguins are Ashley’s muses because their inability to fly doesn’t take away their ferocity. Now, as a recently graduated art director, Ashley looks for her next creative project with the same level of passion.

Hira Ali

When Hira was 5, her family took a trip to Coney Island. She strayed away from her parents and found herself lost. Hira decided it would be more productive to try to draw what they looked like rather than crying for help. She found some chalk and began a rather abstract drawing of her mom and dad. Turns out, her Mom was watching her from afar the whole time. Fast forward to 2020 and Hira is still using art to solve most of her problems.
