Brand Ambassador

I built the class and the clothing line I wish I had as a child.

House of Jaya is a Chicago-based fashion brand for people living between two cultures. It grew out of a classroom, the first year-long Asian American Literature course offered by a US public school district, where dual identity was at the center of every discussion. That same idea now lives in our clothes. We design our own original line and upcycle heirloom sarees into modern, one-of-a-kind garments, even weaving leftover fabric into the cuffs of our shirts and jackets, so nothing goes to waste and every piece carries a story. "Jaya" means victory, because wearing both identities with confidence is a win in itself. A portion of every sale supports the Milaan Foundation, which educates girls in regions where child marriage is common.

We're a small, founder-led team looking for interns and brand ambassadors who want real, hands-on experience in fashion, marketing, and community-building, not busywork. If you've ever felt like you had to split yourself in two to fit in, we'd love to have you build this with us.
