About Designer Nontra Null

Nontra Null was born in a Maryland suburb of Washington, D.C. Her parents came to the U.S. from Thailand, making her a first-generation Thai-American. She was raised as a ''Disney kid'' and started working for the company in 2008 designing apparel and accessories at Disney's Creative Campus in Glendale.

The strong relationship between Moana and Gramma Tala is similar to Nontra and her relationship with her Khun Yai, so she wanted to pay tribute to that connection in her design. Like Moana, Nontra's grandmother played a huge role in shaping her life path, helping to nurture her artistic side. She taught Nontra how to sew at a young age, leading her to her career today. A needle and thread were Nontra's version of the ''Heart of Te Fiti.'' Nontra was also incredibly inspired by the culture of Moana and the legacy of family. Nontra's husband, who works for Disney Animation, helped create the film when she was pregnant with her first child, Hudson, so his name is listed in the credits as a ''Production Baby.'' Like Moana's deep connection to those she loves, her story has a very special place in Nontra's heart.
