At eli_lailai, every tote bag tells a story of courage, creativity, and connection.
 

Founded by Elijah, a 17-year-old artist with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and apraxia, eli_lailai is more than a micro business.

It’s a journey of self-expression. Despite challenges with fine motor skills, Elijah has worked tirelessly to refine his craft. His artwork, now featured on canvas tote bags, captures his vibrant inner world and reflects the joy he finds in sharing it with others.

Each design represents not only Elijah’s imagination, but also his resilience and hope. Through this small business, he is building confidence, independence, and a future defined by creativity.
