MEET THE CREATORS

2026 + Journalism - Strategic Communications

My mission is to create art that strikes a chord in people, and to do that at a price that is both fair to me and my clients. I believe art is for the people; while I don’t work for free, I don’t believe in good art being unaffordable, either. Everyone needs art. I want to help people notice the beauty in their lives, in the moments all around them; it is the little things, after all, that make life so wonderful.

I believe the ultimate goal is being happy, I am doing this because I enjoy it! I love clothes and putting smiles on girls’ faces is what it’s all about! Pieces that give you a sense of excitement! I believe that the student-made community will help me reach customers and grow my business to the next level.

2029 + Business Administration & Statistics

My ultimate goal is to have all sorts of foods, from spices to sauces to dips, that represent people’s cultures. I want my business to allow people to try foods from all over in their own homes.

2026 + Psychology - Human Development & Family Studies

Owner of Moods By T

With Moods by T, I want to share a feeling of deep connection and self-discovery. My hope is that each mood board becomes a tangible representation of a person's unique essence. I want it to create a visual story that inspires confidence and celebrates their personal journey. It is so important to build a space where people can truly see themselves reflected.

I'm excited to see how people's orders will challenge me artistically! The most rewarding part of my creative process is being able to express myself artistically and authentically. I hope to share with people through my business an accessible place that makes people feel like themselves.

2027 + Health Science

Owner of Tilla’s Trinkets

The creative process as a whole for my business is very challenging and rewarding. It sometimes can take time to find and/or finish projects, but the end result is always worth it. I can’t help but look at the finished products and feel a sense of pride in my creation, seeing it actually come to life.

2028 + Textile and Apparel Management

I hope that the garments I create make people feel good in their own skin while also exemplifying the ways we can be more resourceful day to day. By reducing our waste and reusing whatever possible we are able to tackle the issue of overconsumption.

2028 + Graphic Design

Owner of Just Laina Jane

I want to bring joy to you, my customers! By jazzing up your favorite spaces using my designs that I love so much. Through my designs I show music, sports, and university pride in a new fun way, the perfect addition to any wall. I just want my designs to make your space the place you love most!

My ultimate goal is to turn my hobby of crocheting into something meaningful for not just myself but others and to continue to explore my creativity. I hope the Student Made community can help me be successful by connecting me with a community of creatives like myself.

2027 + Fine Arts - Photography

I hope to share a passion for authentic expression, and make all of my customers feel comfortable in their own personal style! My pieces aim to play with experimental design that swings all the way from minimal to maximal, completely natural/one of a kind to mass produced, bright to monochromatic… the only common theme being an honest love for creation, community, nature, and art!!
