016 - Festival Transportation w/ Kristina Lorson


Listen Later

Kristina Lorson taught herself Bubble and turned her clunky spreadsheet into a functioning app successfully transporting bands for 4 music festivals. In this first interview with Kristina we discuss the background pain that Kristina experienced and how she overcame some challenges to build the whole app herself. Traverse is well positioned to take on even more growth in 2023 and we'll be here for a front row seat.
