San Francisco metal maven Aimee Golant was one of my first interviews for tTAP, and listening back to our June 7, 2010 conversation reminded me of how much great business info Aimee had to share!
Blessed with supportive parents, Aimee went after her real dream to be a full-time artist right out of college (where, btw, she was totally discouraged by one awful teacher… and then wonderfully encouraged by another).
