Alex Valdman is the head of creative at AllBirds, a company that makes planet-friendly shoes made with premium natural materials. Prior to joining AllBirds Alex was also a chief creative officer at Rapha and we discuss both of those roles, as well as one of his first breaks in the creative industry, which came when he worked with Kanye West.

In our conversation, Alex also shares with us the story of his upbringing, as he was born in Ukraine and his family emigrated to the United States when he was young. He reflects on the values and lessons learned from his parents and his early upbringing, the culture shock, and the values he lives by these days.
