ERIC RUYAK-“GAME OF THRONES” DESIGNER-BE YOURSELF, DO THE WORK, & MAKE FRIENDS

ERIC RUYAK- Owner and Founder of Hesperadesigns.com and designer of “CERSEI’S” RING FROM GAME OF THRONES joins the podcast and helps us understand that being yourself, doing the work, and making friends can create your bang moment! ERIC RUYAK has been designing jewelry since his freshman year of college at Northwestern University.  Blending his knack for enhancing personal expression with his interest in visual art, he began producing jewelry for friends and family, and ultimately acquired  more requests than he had time to fill.  After graduation, he kept creating pieces for a private clientele base.  After years of experience with commissioned works, Eric launched HESPERA in 2011 to allow for a larger audience to experience his personal version of Art meets Fashion.             Eric is also an outspoken advocate for the survivors of childhood sexual abuse and can be found discussing his own experiences and how to support victims and change the system of violence against vulnerable people, especially children.  His story has been told in various publications, including Vanity Fair. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kelly-cardenas/support
