► EPISODE 065: Life According to Canva Designer Brodi-Rose Newsome
Brodi-Rose (aka Bro) is a qualified Graphic Designer and an Approved Canva Creator based in regional Australia. She specialises in Brand + Illustration, Canva Templates, and more. Bro is passionate about bridging the gap for small businesses to access beautiful and intentional design through templates, easy-to-use websites, and brands that were made to be used.
In 2020, Bro was invited by Canva to be a Creator, and when she isn't busy building brands for kick-ass business owners, she creates templates and illustrations directly for Canva. But, it hasn't always been rainbows and butterflies; she's had negative reactions from other designers by becoming a Canva-Friendly Brand Designer (a term she coined herself).
