This week we talked to Frank Walters of Franklin Walters Design. According to his website, he is an animator, illustrator, and pie enthusiast. We discuss what it is he does and how he was able to overcome a series of obstacles that, for a time, prevented him from achieving his goals.
In this podcast, we visit his website and discuss his plans for his Instagram feed @frankimator
