As I pivot the podcast from spotlighting Key West businesses to featuring artists from around the globe, I’m excited to bring back one of my favorite interviews with graphic designer and fine artist, Kristyn LaMoia.

In this episode, I chat with Kristyn about her creative journey—how she fell in love with graphic design, grew her professional career working in-house and with design studios, and found new freedom by branching into fine art.

Whether you’re curious about transitioning from a 9-to-5 job to creative freelancing or looking to explore the blend of art and design, you’ll love Kristyn’s fresh perspective and colorful approach.
