About the Designer

Bio:

Chay Larri [lə REE] Ross is a Multifaceted Creative/Teaching Artist born and raised within the inland cities of South Bay and South Los Angeles, California. (You guessed it -- a very fancy way of saying, "the hood"!) After earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art with a concentration in Art Education [sub-con in Graphic Communication Design] from California State University Los Angeles, which allowed her to train and study interdisciplinary areas within the arts and education profession, she decided to further advance her academic discipline and went on to earn a Master of Arts in Education (M.A.Ed.) and a California Single-subject Clear Teaching Certification in Visual Arts. Chay Larri is currently in her 8th year at a Title 1 charter high school in her hometown teaching a well-versed index of courses, including Commercial Art, Yearbook Publication, and Advanced Placement Art & Design with a heavy emphasis on literacy, technology, culture & identity, and contemporary social issues deemed pertinent to her burgeoning scholars. In her spare time, she enjoys creating jewelry, zen doodling, listening to controversial podcasts, analyzing select hiphop music and films, quad skating, and watching YouTube tea channels.

Fun Fact #1 | "I started creating different types of jewelry on and off, since the summer of 2013. Early last year, I felt motivated to take my craft seriously, so I enrolled in a free jewelry class at Michaels. Fast forward to over $1000 later, I’ve practically purchased the entire aisle of jewelry tools and supplies. Hyperbole or naw? What you think? Lol."

Fun Fact #2 | "I wasn’t able to spend time with my son nor buy him a gift for his 21st birthday. Feeling guilty, I grabbed a notebook and started sketching bracelet designs that match his personality and style, then texted him the sketches as his “gift”. This gave rise to the birth of The Lee Vaughn Collection."
