Ito English
CEO & Founder

Ito is a mixed-race designer with a knack for combining math and the arts. His path to project management started with an appreciation for communication and leadership at a young age. Years of little playground business ventures led Ito to Oregon State University where he found his partners in the Graphic Design program and launched Soy Studio shortly after graduating. When he isn’t pitching ideas, Ito enjoys recipe testing, curating playlists, and hosting dinner parties for his friends.



Teresa Aguilera Multimedia Director & Founder

Starting at a young age, Teresa Aguilera used art as a medium for communication. Her creative path took her to Oregon State University where she received her BFA in Graphic Design and began to dream up Soy Studio with Ito and Lei. Teresa is a jack-of-all-trades from animation to illustration and is constantly learning new, innovative programs to better bring ideas to life. Outside of work, Teresa enjoys going to experiential events, playing video games, and trying new ice cream flavors.
