ABOUT US
We’re Colin and Samir, creators based out of Los Angeles California. We make videos about the creator economy, and the lessons we’ve learned over 10 years of being on KZfaq. We also interview creators and try to get to the bottom of what’s working on KZfaq and where the creator economy is headed.
