contents A tentative approach to explain the flavor puzzle consists of embedding the Standard Model in a larger gauge symmetry that contains a separate gauge group for each fermion family. In such gauge non-universal (or flavor-deconstructed) theories, neutrinos pose some challenges. I will discuss existing ideas in the literature and present a simple model in which flavor deconstruction naturally leads to sequential dominance for both neutrinos and charged leptons, thus providing a viable explanation for the flavor structure of the lepton sector.
