Adrian's Bio:
I love making products that solve problems for people everyday, and making those available at scale. I have run 3 successful Kickstarter campaigns, raising $2 million through crowdfunding. Born to a Norwegian mother, I grew up on a farm outside of Vancouver Canada, I moved to New York in 2017 after spending 6 years living in Amsterdam, Spain, and Denmark. I embrace the term 'global citizen' and speak 5 languages. I'm on a mission towards sustainability in manufacturing, especially using recycled ocean plastics and other sustainables.
