Jay Grandin co-founded Giant Ant in 2007 with girlfriend, Leah Nelson, after making a handful of questionably humoured quasi-viral videos, mostly starring themselves in far too few clothes. 18 years and 2 babies later, Jay has made thousands of wonderful things with his incredible Giant Ant team. With a new chapter coming, Jay is going to reflect on the past 18 years and some of the most valuable lessons he learned the way.
