<p>What happens when you grow up inside a design studio? In this episode of <strong>The Next Level</strong>, Tom Lauro sits down with creative powerhouse <strong>Jeremy Slagle</strong> and his two insanely talented kids, <strong>Faith and Caleb</strong>, who are now working designers.</p><p>They share what it was like to be raised in a home bursting with creativity, the pivotal moments that shaped their careers, and the real talk on following in the footsteps of a well-known parent in the design world. This is a rare, behind-the-scenes look at how a family turned passion into profession—and passed it on to the next generation.</p><p><br></p><p>Jeremy”s website: <a href="http://www.slagledesign.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">www.slagledesign.com</a></p><p>Caleb: <a href="http://www.calebslagle.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">www.calebslagle.com</a></p><p>Faith: <a href="http://www.Faithslagle.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">www.Faithslagle.com</a></p><p><br></p><p>Instagrams:</p><p>@slagledesign </p><p>@faithslagledesign</p><p>About Tom Lauro:</p><p>I'm a graphic designer / maker who dabbles in a little bit of everything. It all started with a career in landscape architecture, but over time I began drifting more and more into the world of vectors and graphic art. Molded by punk rock and east coast antics, I thrive on simple designs with big personalities. </p><p><br></p><p>No matter what, I believe every project has a story to tell. Unfolding and discovering that narrative is what inspires my process, and creates the best possible product for my clients. With a holistic approach every project gets the same amount of time and effort; whether that be identity branding, marketing materials, product design, or just some die-cut stickers.</p><p><a href="https://www.tomlaurodesign.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.tomlaurodesign.com/</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tlauro_design/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.instagram.com/tlauro_design/</a></p>
