    this is so cool! Idk why I never thought about toy designer as a job before but it looks so fun ❤

      thank you Taylor!🥹❤️ it really is a lot of fun (and hard work 😂) but right!? I think it’s not a lot of people’s first thought when they think design! ☺️

    It’s so incredible to hear that you changed jobs from a researcher to toy designer!! I don’t hear a lot of people moving from a STEM career into a creative one. Changing to a drastically different career is so nerve wracking. Your story is so inspiring!
    Thanks for talking a little about the design process. It’s really cool to get a glimpse. I only recently came across Makeship when Project Zomboid came out with a Spiffo Plush.

    So much booties! I am so proud of you and also realizing how we all have different ways of living lives. I appreciate how dedicated you are to your art!
    And also realize how I love spending time with friends and wouldn’t be able to work on my art everyday after work like you do. It helps me to see the difference! That being said, I’m happy to see you finding what works for you. At the end of the day, that’s what we all need.

      Aww Tiffany! Sorry for seeing your comment so late, but i appreciate you sharing your perspective so much 💛 Lately I've been spending more time with my family and friends as well to get myself refreshed to get back into art 🥰 my routine changes and flows and like you said, whatever works for you is the right way to go!

    Thanks for sharing!! I already love Strawbootea! Love how light is your vlog! Its real and from now on I am gonna do the TO DO LIST during my breakfast. I think you area amazing because you were brave enough to leave your career and follow your dreams as a designer. I like your designs; the details and cuteness are unique.
    Once again thanks for sharing your daily life!

      @@itsdaksha I can definitely make a whole separate video on this :') I actually did make a video before documenting my journey but I felt like i was talking in circles and not being helpful so i privated it LOL but essentially I just put together thoughts of exactly what type of design I enjoyed (i.e. I enjoyed designing physical products/consumer goods as opposed to animation/film), lifestyle/nature of a job suitable for me, did some research and found toy design was the perfect fit for me!
