Studio Seventy Seven


About me: Hello, My name is Jay


Studio Seventy Seven represents my personal Curriculum Vitae or Resume. Since the late nineties, I’ve worked in culture, tech, experiential, design & architecture. 

I’ve got a bachelor’s in economics and am currently working at Dutch design agency, 250K. I strongly believe in the power of emotions to connect people and make it my life journey to seek wonder.
