Khyzyl Saleem (@the_kyza)

We have the Kyza himself live and in studio! Khyzyl is a vehicle designer with an inspirational story and designs that tend to go viral very quickly. He's started in the digital space as a video game vehicle designer, but his creations also exist in the metal in the form of body kits and complete cars. From concepts to body kits to resto mods, his skill is incredible and his creations one-of-a-kind. On this show we talk about how his passion led to an unexpected job...and then another one; his love/hate relationship with learning new skills; how he transitioned from making labels to video game cars; moving from digital to tangible in the form of a creating a body kit company; and his newest project designing an entire car that you or I can actually buy. Check out his work here: https://www.instagram.com/the_kyza/?hl=enhttps://livetooffend.com/ Recorded November 10, 2023  Visit BetterHelp.com/smokingtire today to get 10% off your first month. Download the Gametime app, create an account, and use code SMOKINGTIRE for $20 off your first purchase.
