    Founder & Artist at Paint the Town

    Celia Ma is the CEO and Founder of Paint the Town, a company she established in 2016 to provide engaging social art experiences through private paint nights, both in-person and virtual.

    Celia's professional background includes roles in business operations at Medallia and Deloitte, where she honed her skills in financial analysis and market research. Her strategic vision has been pivotal in scaling Paint the Town, which was listed as the #338 Fastest Growing Company by Inc. Magazine in 2022. She oversees all aspects of the business, including sales, event quality, and team management, ensuring that each event is memorable for participants.23
