Thriving as an Artist with Kelsey Merkeley

In today's interview I'm joined by my friend and former coworker, Kelsey Merkeley. Kelsey is an insanely talented artist and goldsmith, makes the most beautiful jewelry, is strategic beyond compare and travels the world to hone her craft. We talk about what it was like growing up in small town BC, what apprenticeship looks like in the world of jewelry, balancing her artistic work and the nonprofit sector, and what she learned from her time in Italy working with world renowned goldsmiths.
