Visual Art – Orange County
Gabe is a designer and artist who aspires to become one of the next big footwear creators. Growing up as a competitive basketball player, he learned the importance of a well designed performance sneaker. His first love has always been basketball, but in a close second is art. His roots as a basketball player, natural talent for art, and passion for sports fashion is leading him to a fulfilling career in the footwear industry. He is the new talent on the block, an up and coming designer who has already placed in the top 16 finalists of the 2017 World Sneaker Championship and was sought out to participate as a footwear designer in the Lace Up Youtube Red series, where he got to design sneakers for celebrities including Damian Lillard, Ashley Graham, Fetty Wap, James Harden, and more. Gabe’s goals are to continue learning from the most respected brands in the industry and to one day create a footwear brand of his own.
