This week, I sit down with designer, lettering artist, and muralist Lauren Hom. Lauren is best known for turning her passion projects into thriving design businesses. Over the past decade, Lauren has created work for clients like Vans, Target, Google, and Adobe. I’m catching Lauren at the tail end of her most recent side quest: a year-long adventure into the culinary arts. Lauren talks about balancing culinary school with her freelance practice and shares some tactics for committing to personal projects and building creative confidence.

Bonus Episode: Vanessa Eckstein RGD
Welcome to our first bonus episode of the DesignThinkers podcast! Each year, RGD asks a different Canadian agency or studio to tackle the conference identity. In these shorter episodes, I’ll be speaking with some of those folks—our past DesignThinkers Brand Partners. In this episode, I have pleasure of chatting with Vanessa Eckstein, founder of blok design. Vanessa and the team at blok design were our Design Partner in 2002, but Vanessa was involved with the conference since it's very beginning.
