Today, The Voices of the Gig Economy talks to Anna, a German game designer living in the U.K., and an Etsy entrepreneur. Anna talks about her experience running a candle shop on Etsy as a side hobby, how she has turned it into a profitable enterprise. Anna stresses the initial capital investment to start an online store, the time investment, how she juggles a full-time job, makes candles after work, and how candle making helps lighten up her days during the dark COVID-19 Pandemic.

Our host today is Ann Chen (Hunter College – City University of New York).
