John Ariola 


I'm an entrepreneur and designer with a strong passion for creative problem-solving in fashion, marketing, and business. My background in Design & Innovation Management and Merchandising Management from Oregon State University has given me hands-on experience collaborating with cross-functional teams, executing design sprints, and utilizing project management tools to drive projects from concept to completion. This experience fueled my passion for the structure and strategy behind bringing ideas to life successfully.

I'm the co-founder and creative director of Monroe Studios, a lifestyle label dedicated to delivering premium alternative streetwear. We focus on crafting high-quality, timeless pieces that champion slow fashion and sustainability.
