I am the President of everMaya, a Fashion & Lifestyle brand based out of New York. I have set out to help redefine the perception of beauty in the fashion world. I took the first step by hiring Madeline Stuart, a gorgeous model with Down syndrome, to be the face (and heart) of our brand. everMaya takes the Mayan (Guatemalan) tradition of beautiful, handmade items and repurposes them with modern styling to create one-of-a-kind fashion pieces.

Having a cousin with down syndrome, I know all to well the adversity Madeline has had to overcome to fulfill her dreams and like Madeline, my cousin has struggled to fulfill his dreams in a society that is not always accepting or understanding of those with special needs. I hope that this partnership will be an inspiration to those with special needs who have similar aspirations and I hope Evermaya will inspire other companies in the industry to follow suit !
LOVE this brand!! Madeline is so beautiful and she is an inspiration to all the girls in the world. Congratulations EVERMAYA, you are making an excelent job!
