Faculty

A native New Yorker and alumnus of Parsons School of Design, Robert Escalera is a multidisciplinary designer and strategic creative. Since he relocated to Paris in 2012, drawing has become his most valuable means of communication.

It’s a “voice” he has developed to communicate in the diverse career he has forged for himself: designer/director, brand strategist/business developer, illustrator/storyteller, and mentor/educator.

Having been involved in all aspects of the fashion industry, from product design and development to production, retail development, buying, and merchandising, Escalera has a unique perspective on balancing creative and commercial endeavors.
