design star

Taniya Nayak got into design because of Vern Yip and the TV show Trading Spaces! Her old friend joins her for a deep discussion on how being true to yourself can open up a world of opportunities. 

Vern started as a pre-med student because he didn't want to let his parents down, who moved from Hong Kong to the US for better opportunities for Vern. But architecture was always his passion, and Vern found his genuine self as he followed his passion.

Hear about Vern's multiple 'big breaks' during his inspirational journey, including similarities with Taniya's upbringing as well.
