On our second episode of The Native Experience, I have the privilege of chatting with Rachel Carruthers, the platform partnerships lead at Canva, to discuss the creation of truly native experiences for diverse audiences.
Rachel shares her experiences working on Canva's product and marketing localization and internationalization efforts, eventually growing to over 120 locales.
We also delve into the anthropology of language and how language shapes culture and perception. Additionally, Rachel shares her cultural background and unique perspective on bringing that to Australia. Join in on this insightful conversation about language, design, and culture!

ABOUT OUR GUEST:
Joining Canva in 2017, Rachel was originally responsible for leading Canva’s product and marketing localisation and internationalization efforts. She worked to ensure that every user had a truly localized experience (be it on the Web App, iOS or Android platforms), while leading cross-functional globalization initiatives to support Canva’s long term international growth strategies.
In March 2023 she shifted gears to focus on some of Canva’s key platform partnerships, driving comarketing opportunities and amplifying new product launches.
So far, her favorite thing about her time at Canva has been the convergence of language and design, and the anthropological aspect of how culture can affect their users' design experience and platform behavior.
Prior moving to Sydney, Australia to pursue her Masters Degree in Media, Rachel was working as a Senior Localisation Project Manager back home in Silicon Valley, servicing high-profile tech enterprise clients.
Rachel is deeply passionate about language, food and culture, and loves to travel whenever she can. Being from California she also loves being outdoors, as well as working in animal foster care.
