Create. Connect. Thrive.

Meet The Founder

I’m Kayla — a lifelong singer-songwriter, a woman in tech, and someone who knows firsthand how hard it is to balance a career with a passion for music.

I created Five Too Nine as a community for individuals navigating that same tension — a space to share our struggles, but even more importantly, to keep our art alive.

This is for every professional who still carries a creative dream: the painter, the writer, the musician, the filmmaker, the designer.

We’re here to remind each other that creativity matters — and that your art still belongs in your life, even alongside a demanding 9-to-5.

Join us in building a community where we lift each other up, share ideas, showcase our work, and support one another’s creative journeys after the workday ends.
