Today's guests are Amy and Jen Hood from Hoodzpah in sunny Southern CA. Buckle up kids...this one's a hoot...

During Part One of this interview we talk about:

-their artsy and creative childhood where at age 7 or 8 they were able to paint a mural inside their house. Inside Walls. Parent approved.

-their time in junior high creating bedazzled shirts and other artwork that they could sell at school.

-where they first started noticing design before knowing what it was, and the poster that finally gave this art and creative a name: Graphic Design. 

-the out of the blue opportunity that gave them the opportunity to learn design and apprentice at a coupon clipper magazine/print shop.

-the Hoodzpah startup story and the one project they landed in the early days that reassured them of their direction. 

-the power of community.

-collaborating with clients on their logo and branding projects and how they do it. 

-some clients that they would love to work with. Hint Hint. @levis @addidas @disney @netflix

This interview is loaded with great stories and fun. And this is only Part One!!! I really loved hearing about the early days of Hoodzpah and how they have given back and been an active member of an amazing design community. @hoodzpahdesign @amyhoodlum @thegoodhood
