Bio
Maria Leo
I had the pleasure of working with Jay Nevens. Jay is one of the most creative and technically proficient designers I’ve worked with. He worked tirelessly with engineers, last makers, material experts, insight teams and costing teams. From market research to conceptual development Jay’s versatility ranges from dress shoes to sandals and all hybrids in between. Jay can work productively in the face of high pressure and tight deadlines never failing to produce on target designs. And if that is not enough, Jay is easy going, possesses a collaborative energy and was an absolute joy to work with. Jay would be powerful asset to any company seeking a creative, skilled, growth-oriented approach.
