The Journey to Saving $5,000

Emmy Thelander (http://www.emmythelander.com/) is a multimedia artist. She has many jobs, but she mostly makes a living by teaching, as an adjunct professor.
“I’m just more drawn to the things that feel humane, even if they pay a little less..Feeling being treated with respect and (having) flexibility is much more valuable than the prestige that came with whatever full-time, or corporate jobs...and the truth is, because my primary job is teaching, my other insecurities can fall away. I have that and I enjoy that.”
