ON STAGE: Flavia Devetag

Flavia Devetag is an Italian-American toy designer and eclectic creative based in Portland.

After completing her Industrial Design studies in her hometown of Brescia, Italy, Flavia’s career path took a series of turns that led her through hospitality and graphic design before going back to her roots in 2017, when Toy Design “found her.”
