Welcome to the team, Stuart and Nehemiah.
These two gents are going to help us around the shop and on social. Stoked to have them in the mix. If you're in the Pacific Northwest and are interested in being part of the team, please send an email to info@combatflipflops.com.
Meet Nehemiah.
“Creative doing is better than creative thinking.”
Nehemiah will graduate from Western Washington University in June with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration. He is on track to graduate at the top of his class and is the first in his family to earn a degree.
As a “creative doer” and aspiring entrepreneur, he plans on finishing college, rolling up his sleeves and making something awesome.
When he’s not working or studying, you can find Nehemiah playing music, creating art, people watching, fishing and sailing he Puget Sound. He has a wife, three dogs and an overweight cat.
He’s currently working on a top-secret project for Combat Flip Flops. When confronted about the project, Nehemiah responded by saying, “It’s big — really big!”
