Creator – Co Founder: Leonora Shingai Chinhengo (Shay Leonora)
Zimbabwean born designer based in New York.

Creativity is a whole of who we’ve been. 

I was raised in Zimbabwe. The child of a U.N. diplomat, the community around me was a quilt of cultures and languages and peoples. The stories of their homelands, their traditions, their desires—they filled me. No two stories were the same. No two people had the same life. There was a work of art in each. 

Those stories lingered in me as I studied and began to practice design. Distinction made a home in each of my designs. As my work became more recognized, my clientbase expanded to include work for MTV, National Geographic, and OWN. As my career took shape, so did my philosophy: 

Creativity is the embodiment of all life. 

While I was working, CREATOR began taking shape in the background.

You see, talent is fluid. Creativity flows from us and through us. When I was at work, doing what I loved, I was in the zone. I was in BEAST MODE. And I knew other creatives felt the same.

I watched as the CREATOR mindset became a way of life. You attain the ability to become, do, pursue, change and create anything you desire. 

Imagine: If we were free, truly free, to explore our wild ideas, what might we create? Who might we become? 

CREATOR is that place. To open up, to share your sacred talent with others like you, and to honor the creativity within.

Josh and I designed this platform to celebrate the essence of the inventive spirit of creative souls everywhere. We want you to begin living so your creativity can be seen and shared. Develop the ideas that scare you and drive your passion forward. You are a Creator. 

Welcome home, friend.
