Emerald Coast Essentials

In this episode, we dive into the life and passions of Nikki Via, the visionary owner of Artesano Boutique and a lifelong resident of the beautiful Emerald Coast. We explore Nikki's coastal upbringing, her creative spirit, and her 18 years of marriage, which have brought her two wonderful kids, Miles and Ari. Nikki's enthusiasm for creating, spending quality time with family, and embracing the great outdoors shines through as she reflects on her journey.

Discover how Nikki's dream of owning her own business became a reality, leading to the establishment of Artesano Boutique, a local art gallery showcasing the talents of over 40 artists since 2010. We also learn about her early ambitions of pursuing a career related to the environment, a theme that still resonates with her today.

Recreation on the Emerald Coast often means spending time on the water, and Nikki's family fully embraces this coastal lifestyle. She shares her favorite hobby, sewing, and her love for reading, which provide balance and inspiration in her life.

Nikki's educational journey, from local schools like Edwins and Bruner to FSU and UWF, has helped shape her into the accomplished individual she is today. Her efforts and dedication have been recognized with prestigious accolades, including "Finest on the Emerald Coast Best Art Gallery," "Finest on the Emerald Coast Best Women's Accessories," and even recognition by Southern Living Magazine as the "Best Boutique in the South."
