Today's guest is Alicja Colon. She is a Paper Illustrator and Photographer at Thrice Studio in Savannah GA.
During this episode we talk about:
-how Alicja came from an Immigrant family and her time working at her dads vinyl sign shop cleaning up pixelated images and applying vinyl.
-her first job out of art school and what area of design she niched down into.
-her journey out of studio life and into freelance and having her own business.
-what a paper illustrator is and the story of how she was first introduced to it.
-struggles with imposter syndrome and how to change your own self-talk.
-how some of her largest growth steps have come from conferences and why.
We also got into talking about the purpose behind Thrice Studio and why Alicja is working so hard to bring to her community. I am so glad I was introduced to Alicja and her paper illustration talent! This was a really interesting and motivating interview for sure! @thricestudio
