An update from the creator of unique and charming kitchen tools.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1965
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. Recently, we’ve featured the founder of Mozart for Munchkins. The group produces concerts and musical experiences for children of all ages in New York City, as well as a land surveyor who changes careers when he discovers an accidental side hustle painting signs and murals. It’s now a full-time, six-figure business! Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Marci Heit in Silver Spring Maryland. Marci does a lot! She runs an animation production company called “It’s Real Entertainment.” She’s also a professional voice actor. And in her spare time, she’s the founder of QD Foodie, a kitchen tool collection that makes cooking fun. (She notes that she doesn’t call it her side hustle but part of her overall business—that’s kind of like me.) What’s happened since?
