Von Ugo

In 2026, Kaya founded a business venture called Von Ugo. Von Ugo is an independent film production studio with a mission to produce innovative and compelling stories while platforming LA-based emerging actors and filmmakers as they navigate the ever-changing film industry.  In addition to film production, Von Ugo will publish a magazine called Quick Changes. This magazine will focus on highlighting the work of emerging creatives in film, and discussions on how they navigate the changes in their careers and in the industry. The film industry is rapidly changing, and Von Ugo wants to offer a space to uplift the rising artists being affected by these changes.

Von Ugo is currently being developed by Kaya at The University of Southern California in the Arts Leadership (MS) program.
