Hello,
My name is Oscar Lema and I'm currently a Footwear Designer at Leif J Ostberg Inc. I’m working on various brands that range from the kids category to the adults, and in products that range from casual, athletics, novelty and cleated.
My focus is on improving everyday in my knowledge of design through the exploration of various design categories. I want to be a part of a team that creates something beautiful that can be appreciated by several people. Apart from design, I enjoy playing soccer and basketball. Having played sports growing up, it has taught me so much about the art of practice. Any skill or goal can be achieved, as long as you are willing to put in the time, the practice, as well as having the ability to receive advice and translate that into a positive result.
