Reddit was nicknamed The Front Page of the Internet when it’s wide-reaching content covered the world’s most trending stories. The platform is composed of millions of communities (“subreddits”) devoted to a range of content, from vital to trivial. Three things remain the same across the platform: it’s authentic, honest, and proudly untamed.

It begs the question: how exactly did they do it? And what keeps redditors coming back for more? We had the exclusive opportunity to meet the women masterminds behind Reddit’s fame and success.
