Danielle McCoy and Jordan Jackson—who together run the Portland-based Amen, Amen Studio and co-teach a popular design course at PNCA—created apparel for the Nigerian Olympics team at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The outfits were unveiled as the team crossed the Seine at the Opening Ceremonies.

Back at PNCA, McCoy and Jackson help students bring their own ideas to life. “We think our approach prepares students for real-world experiences with clients and projects, whether you’re working freelance, in the context of an agency, or at an apparel company,” McCoy says.
