Felicia Henderson

In this week’s episode, we have Dyandra Raye - The Sustainable Vegan Designer  of  Joanne Verney 

Dyandra tells us about how disrupting her lifestyle habits (going vegan) opened up a whole new avenue as a plant-based luxury shoe designer and advocate. 

Her fashion journey started by sketching when she was a child and writing business plans on cardboard. After attending Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia, and obtaining a degree in Economics. She took her talents to New York to pursue her dream in fashion by becoming a wardrobe stylist and digital influencer for celebrities and brands.

During this time she dug deeper into education and pursued a Master's in Global Fashion Enterprise to learn more about the business of fashion. While learning to sew, visiting factories overseas, and constructing business plans, she began working with brands that had a mission to not only provide fashion and beauty to the world but in a healthy way! Using her eye for detail and quality plus her bold style and aura, Jo-Anne Vernay will fill the void of fashionable vegan footwear worldwide.
