But Tayo's journey doesn't end with her own creations. She finds great joy in sharing her knowledge and expertise through running courses. By providing others with the opportunity to explore a different path and unleash their own creativity, Tayo takes immense pleasure in witnessing their progress and witnessing the birth of unique, one-of-a-kind creations.
