Hello, my name is Mezay Ugbo, and I am so excited to share with you my passion for creating beautiful, functional leather handbags and artwork that celebrates the diversity of people of color. As a Nigerian-Indian, representation is of utmost importance to me, and I am committed to showcasing the beauty and uniqueness of our cultures through my work.
With a degree in fashion design, I have honed my craft to perfection, and each handbag I create is a testament to the quality and attention to detail that I put into every piece. From the design to the finishing touches, I take pride in every step of the process and always strive for perfection.
As an artist, my illustrations go beyond aesthetics to convey a message of empathy, hope, and change. I use my talent to highlight the struggles and experiences of marginalized communities and to encourage conversations about social justice issues.
Outside of work, I am a proud plant mom, and I find joy in tending to my plants and watching them thrive. I am also a devoted dog lover and have made it my mission to care for and adopt as many strays as possible.
My journey is ever-evolving, and I am grateful for every opportunity to create and connect with customers who share my values. I am excited to see where my passion for representation and dedication to quality and craftsmanship will take me next, and I hope you will join me on this journey!
