Today we welcome Kylie Van Meter of Kylie Interiors – a full service design firm based out of Ventura County, California. Kylie is a recent design school graduate with a degree in Interior Design and Business Accounting. In this episode we talk about the reality of design school, the value of “on the job” work experience, and Kylie’s path to launching her very own interior design business just a few months ago.

I can’t believe it has taken me this long to feature an emerging design professional fresh out of design school. Kylie caught my attention on Instagram when she posted a meaningful account of her design school journey and her excitement to finally graduate. I know many of you are in design school right now and are eagerly anticipating your design career. The opportunities are endless and can sometimes be overwhelming. I truly believe that this conversation about life and the business of design could be just the inspiration you need to aim high and succeed beyond your wildest dreams.
