Cliff Obrecht & Melanie Perkins
Co-Founders of
Fusion Yearbooks and Canva
Our story.
Back to 2007. Melanie Perkins and Cliff Obrecht (the co-founders) scratch their heads over a computer screen.
“Hey Cliff… millions of people are out there using social media to tell stories and share photos… and they love it! – so why should creating a yearbook be any different?”
At the time, Melanie had been teaching design programs at University, so she was at the forefront of witnessing the long and tedious process it took for beginners to get professional results. The problem was: creating a professional looking yearbook was an expensive or uncertain challenge for schools.
This needed a solution. So the idea was sparked: “We’ll develop a service that makes the yearbook creation process easy and fun for everyone”.
And thus Fusion Yearbooks was born.
Gathering world-class talents.
At Fusion Yearbooks, everyone is an expert. We work hard, and make good fun out of it!
