  • Among other great YouTubers, we discussed diversity in the media and how multicultural

  • backgrounds have influenced online content and communities

  • for another interview

  • and quizzes like If I had a celebrity crush

  • What was my favourite food and What was I looking forward to during VidCon

  • What?!

  • Moments later, I was back at it again on golf carts

  • navigating underground to get to my next panel

  • We went through this giant elevator that carried a dozen of us

  • For the first time during this convention,

  • I was going to moderate this next panel called SMALL, RISING & ESTABLISHED

  • It gathered creators that I admired a lot such as

  • Yulin Kuang, Josh Elkin, Casey Neistat Craig Benzine and Ben Willingdorf
