It's not often you run across someone who has the perfect blend of personal and professional success and when you do, you HAVE to interview them! I had the privilege of interviewing David Roger, Co-Founder and CEO of Felix Gray. His company makes eyewear for people who spend a lot of time online and complain about strained eyes, headaches and blurry vision - all symptoms of too much Blue Light! I love the technology, but David is a very interesting guy and has also developed a company culture that most would envy. In our wide-ranging interview, we talk about his journey, his vision, his company, his culture, and also his message to young people who have been affected by COVID-19. Enjoy!
