Season 2, Ep. 2
•
Jeremy Krause is an exceptionally creative individual. As the Chief Innovation & Disruption Officer for Global Retail Brands (House, House Bed & Bath, Robins Kitchen), it's important to always consider disrupting the status quo. Jeremy has been on an incredible trip to the United States, bringing GRB and the Challah Knife (challahknife.com) to sunny LA.
