Leeyul Jeraffi
I specialize in innovative automotive and motorcycle design.
As a California native, I’ve always been immersed in the diverse car culture that Los Angeles has to offer. My appreciation and love of design is rooted in this vast and beautiful desert landscape.
Throughout my studies at Art Center I was fortunate enough to work with two major transportation design studios, both greatly enriching my understanding of my craft. I’m eager to keep expanding my skills and share what I have to offer working as a designer in today’s rapidly evolving industry.
