The rising cost of everything has Valley residents searching for more money, and more than ever many are taking on the side hustle.
A euphemism for something to earn a few dollars, more people in the region are stretching their business and entrepreneurial skills to create a way to make some extra income.
People like Vivian Gracia, a 26-year-old staff worker at a Valley school who has her own website, sells her art online. She has sold stickers, T-shirts, office supplies, coloring books and more since 2018 when she created VGDraws.
