Many of you know me as the law student who skipped taking the bar to follow her art dreams. But there is so, so much more to the story than that. The early projects. The setbacks. The financial decisions in the face of student loans. The fact that I originally refused to start an Instagram page?! I'm coming up on 9 years of EBD and looking back on the journey is equal parts excitement, relief and disbelief. I'm so thankful for the growth over these 9 years, and I'm excited to see what comes in year 10!! WATCH PART 2 HERE: Be sure to SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss parts 2 and 3 where I'll offer tips for other small business owners hoping to scale and reflect on what I would have done differently! #summershopping #etsyseller #etsyshop #smallbusiness #artist #stationery #million #growth #scaling #howto #startingabusiness If you're new here - welcome! I started my business on my 18th birthday selling paintings I made in my free time. I continued to run and grow it throughout college and graduate school, and into law school at Duke University. Now I'm running the business full time, law degree in hand, and I wouldn't have it any other way! I sell my art on my website, wholesale on and I license my work to be sold in stores including Home Goods, Marshalls, At Home, and World Market.
