College Creatives began with a simple observation: many students pursuing rigorous academic paths quietly leave parts of themselves behind.
For many young adults pursuing higher education, that tension feels deeply familiar. Creativity remains central to their identity. What was missing was a space where both could exist together without compromise.
"College Creatives exists to celebrate the artistic side of students whose chosen fields do not traditionally foster creativity."
— Our Founder
We present to you a curated platform where college students can earn passive income while pursuing demanding careers in STEM and other professional fields.
Artists apply using a verified .edu email and undergo a review process before joining the platform. Once approved, they upload their work, set their prices, and fulfill orders through Printful's print-on-demand infrastructure, with direct payouts through Stripe.
The founder
Zakora Moore
Zakora is an aspiring physician-scientist whose path has never fit neatly into one category. Currently working in research and pursuing a career in medicine, she has spent years navigating spaces that rarely make room for artistic expression.
Her experiences led her to build College Creatives. She wanted a place that acknowledged what so many science and pre-professional students already know: that creativity does not disappear when you choose a demanding field. It just goes looking for an outlet.
College Creatives is that outlet.
