Here’s the first interview of season two and it’s with my good friend, artist and Islamic geometry educator @samira.mian ✨ . We chatted about Samira’s career path from banking to teaching and then to arts and how she joined her love of mathematics with arts by being self-employed artist and educator. She gave us some insight on types of geometric patterns and told us why wrong patterns occur. . We also chatted about the ins and outs of living as an artists and educator with the various income streams of teaching online and in person, YouTube, patreon and PayPal me! .
