GGC's First Date With Jesse Nabel

First dates are always awkward and nerve racking, but they’re also full of excitement. According to People, your date has a good idea whether or not they want to see you again within 20 minutes! Here we’ll give you a closer look into some of our favorite companies and the people behind them, with some unlikely questions and answers.

Jesse Nabel is the founder of a great company called RiseWest. Jesse is a mostly self taught business man, screen printer and all around great guy. RiseWest sells t-shirts, sweatshirts and totes, all of which use environmentally friendly dyes while being 100% sweatshop-free.

Hi Jessie, thank you for joining us! So, where are you from?

I grew up in Santa Monica, CA

Luckyyyy... Do you have any siblings?

I have 3 siblings, 2 older sisters and an older brother.

So you're the baby! That has its benefits.. If you could travel to one place tomorrow, where would you go?

I would travel to Cabo Polonio, Uruguay.

Sounds amazing. Any pet peeves we should know about?

When people don't use blinkers at 4-way stops.

Haha, yes, we feel you. What's on your bedside table right now?

A copy of Checklist Manifesto and a pencil and paper for those ideas that hit me right before I go to sleep.

Why is it that ideas pop up right when you're about to fall asleep? Anyway, what's on your iPod?

The Tallest Man on Earth, Mac Miller, and the Ricky Gervais podcast.

We hear that the Tallest Man on Earth (Kristian Matsson) is actually not that tall. That could be a good first date question, 'what would your stage name be?" Hmm... Thanks, Jesse!!
