About the speaker
In 2006, Maker launched the cleaning service Clean My Space. In 2011, she decided to create digital content, including a YouTube channel, to help drive bookings. Since then, her YouTube channel has amassed over 235 million video views and over 1.7 million subscribers, she has gained a hefty Instagram following and a high-traffic website. She also founded a microfibre cleaning tools company in 2016 called Maker's Clean.
While Maker has delivered her expert advice on cleaning products, tools and do-it-yourself substitutes for over the past 10 years, she wasn’t always a cleaning pro and she understands that people are looking for practical, time-saving solutions to everyday problems. Her fans tune into her YouTube, Facebook and Instagram pages to get the latest cleaning advice and follow her life as an entrepreneur, foodie and mother of a toddler.
