At BSSP, we all have a side hustle. We’re made up of makers, musicians, artists, and even chefs. It’s what makes us good at what we do. Each month we feature one BSSPer and their side gig. Because we don’t just encourage making stuff after hours, we promote it too.

This month’s maker is Crystal Perez, Talent Acquisition Manager and founder of Vybes, a streetwear label for all. Inspired by Perez’s late brother and Grateful Dead enthusiast, Vybes has grown into a budding business focusing on uniting and highlighting BIPOC artists and individuals.
