The Founders

and classical violin at Oberlin College. He has lived in Brooklyn NY and

Shana Kent is from Kansas City, where she studied Graphic Design,
Illustration, and Metalsmithing at the University of Kansas. Early in her
career, she honed her skills designing jewelry, housewares, handbags,
product displays, and packaging. Since moving to New York in 2002, she has
worked as a designer, creative director, and VP for a variety of
accessories companies. Shana has been traveling overseas for more than 10
years, working in factories and design houses, and she knows the benefits
and challenges for workers in the global economy. She has seen the
constant over-development of new products and the use of toxic materials
and treatments used to create the "next new thing". For Shana, Survive
Design is a way to take her passion for design and pair it with a
commitment to the environment and workers to create "friendly fashion".
