Meet Your Instructor

Hi! I'm Justin! I’m the founder of VALEVRO and a lifelong craftsman with a passion for shoemaking and patternmaking. I’ve been a professional pattern maker and shoemaker for over 10 years. Over this time, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the craft—designing, patternmaking, and constructing shoes that not only look beautiful but also fit perfectly. My mission now is to empower and inspire others to follow their creative dreams—just as I did when I first discovered the art of making shoes. I love sharing the skills and techniques I’ve developed so you too can bring your ideas to life and become the shoemaker you want to be.
