Making $386,000 with a Figma course. Michael Riddering shares how he founded Figma Academy.

By day, Michael Riddering (aka @Ridd), is the founding designer for Maven — a cohort-based education platform. By night, he's the founder of Figma.Academy — a design course that teaches advanced design tactics delivered directly inside of Figma.

In this episode, Ridd breaks down how he built Figma Academy. We uncover a decision he made early on that helped influence Figma Academy into the success story it is today.
