ABOUT THE FOUNDER

FROM VISION TO RESURRECTION

At 16, I had a vision—to create menswear that seamlessly fused faith and fashion. I always wondered: Why did Christian style often feel disconnected from creativity? I wanted to change that narrative.  Saint Issa wasn’t built in a day. Like many entrepreneurs, I tried launching through sheer hustle—networking, pushing doors open, forcing the vision forward. And like many entrepreneurs, I watched it fail.  The turning point came through surrender. When I let go of how i thought things should happen, the brand wasn’t just revived—it was resurrected. With greater purpose, clarity, and divine alignment.

THE NAME THAT FOUND ME

"Saint Issa" came to me instinctively—it felt powerful, yet simple. Only later did I discover that "Issa” means Jesus in some cultures. This wasn’t a coincidence; it was confirmation. That revelation defined Saint Issa’s purpose: dying to self to rise in a new identity with Christ. Just as Jesus offers rebirth, Saint Issa embodies transformation in the creative realm.

BEYOND CLOTHING

Saint Issa isn’t just about menswear—it’s about creating with purpose. We focus on raw materials, timeless design, and authentic craftsmanship. But beyond the garments, we’re building a community—a space for creatives who understand that sometimes, our visions must die before they can truly live. I believe God speaks through our dreams and desires, shaping them toward a greater calling when we fully surrender. That’s why I’m passionate about connecting with creatives, entrepreneurs, and visionaries who feel called to express faith through their craft.

THE INVITATION

Saint Issa isn’t just a brand—it’s a testament to the resurrection process. True clarity isn’t about simplicity for simplicity’s sake—it’s about refining something to its purest, most powerful form. This is my journey. But what about yours? What vision needs to surrender so it can be reborn into something greater? Join us—not just as customers, but as fellow creators finding their true identity.

True transformation begins when we surrender—only then can vision be resurrected into something greater.”
