Rise of the Creative Class with Jason Mayden

Thursday, February 23, 2017

The Hive welcomes Jayson Mayden, former Nike Design Director at Jordan Brand and Designer-in-Residence at Accel Ventures. Jason Mayden brings a unique perspective to the Claremont Colleges as he became the first design intern at Jordan Brand and worked at Nike for 13 years. He created strategic apparel platforms for Chris Paul, Derek Jeter, Carmelo Anthony and, of course, Michael Jordan.

As a “designer, lecturer, artist, collector of curious and wonderfully crafted goods, sports junkie, book worm, equality in education advocate, 1990’s hip hop enthusiast, and social innovator”, Jason Mayden will share his journey in product design, user experience, life and embracing the power of being you.
