From Law To Liquor: How One Corporate Attorney Left Law To Start A Luxury Tequila Company

September 27, 2013 Forbes, Student Profiles No Comments

Pete Girgis decided to leave his corporate gig so that he could launch a tequila company.

My name is Dan Reich. I'm an entrepreneur in NYC with a background in Electrical and Computer Engineering.

I'm the Co-Founder and CEO of Troops, a venture-backed business that is building artificial intelligence for work. I am also the Co-Founder and President of TULA, a private equity backed health and beauty business that has developed the world's first line of probiotic skincare products.

Before that, I was a Co-Founder of Spinback (acquired by Buddy Media in May 2011, then acquired by Salesforce in June 2012).

On the side, I volunteer as a member of National Ski Patrol. In between I occasionally write words (see Forbes), crank tunes, and every now and again, hit up the globe for some traveling.
