Founder: Kaya Ugorji

Kaya Ugorji is a Los Angeles based actor and producer. With a background in visual art and design, and a passion for photography, music, and acting, she has always considered herself to be a multidisciplinary artist. Kaya’s strong fashion background consists of being a class of 2020 Gucci Changemaker, and studying fashion design and styling at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. Once she graduated college, Kaya moved to Los Angeles  to pursue a career in fashion entertainment as a wardrobe assistant.  Living in LA encouraged Kaya to pour into her passion for acting, so she found her way back to the theatre and began working as an actor. It was important for Kaya to find ways to incorporate her love of fashion into her life and career, so she decided to launch Doun Gallery: A company where she would produce fashion-forward projects for herself and other passionate creatives in creative industries.
