How TINT was Made

I’ve realized in the last year, a lot of my free time is consumed by watching Shark Tank, listening to NPR’s How I Built This, or reading founder stories in books and articles. Why? They inspire me to keep doing what I do. To keep elevating to my next level. To humanize this crazy startup journey. To keep my engine running.

So when my friend asked me to share how TINT was Made in a style similar to NPR’s How I Built This, I couldn’t resist. Not because I wanted to hear my own voice on a podcast, but because I just might be able to ignite someone’s creative soul to take that leap of faith they’ve been waiting to do.

So in this podcast, I dive deep into the raw stories of how my team and I have built the company from the ground up, transparently with no censors. Everything from how I found my cofounders in college to scaling the company 5x in one year to then overcoming our first round of layoffs. You’ll hear the real story behind How TINT was Made.

If you have time and happen to align interest in listening to the podcast below, let me know if I was able to do that for you by commenting or chatting with me on social:
