This is an episode for: Fans of "How I Built This" & Canva.

Jan 20, 2022

Mikey and Bethany discuss Guy Raz’s interview with Melanie Perkins, CEO & Co-founder of Canva, on NPR’s How I Built This.

Dubbed “The People’s Photoshop”, Canva started with the idea to make school yearbook design more accessible and more collaborative. We are incredulous with how ambitiously this young founder went after big name investors—FAST. Literally. There was kite-surfing involved.

Most importantly, Mikey and Bethany determine what Melanie’s pitch “walkout music” would be. Take a listen.
