Krystal Lauk is an art director, illustrator, and the owner of the San Francisco-based boutique agency, Krystal Lauk Studios, and a graduate of the Academy of Art University. In this episode, Krystal tells us about her journey from Arizona, where her interests were in more surrealist painting as seen in magazines like Juxtapoz, to her move to San Francisco after an eye-opening visit to the Academy’s Spring Show. And it was after graduation from the Academy of Art University, Krystal took the leap to start her own agency and began working with some of the biggest names in Silicon Valley's tech world.
