Role - Senior Video Editor
About us :
Coffee is "wakeup technology" that has not materially improved in 1,500 years. We are changing that. 50% of Americans have a gene variant that makes metabolizing caffeine difficult, causing jitters, bloating, and stomach problems. Most people shrug their shoulders and say, "Welp, that's coffee." Instead of shoulder shrugging, we've developed a priority blend of coffee, functional mushrooms, collagen protein, and nootropics to promote focus, energy, immunity, and gut health. No crash. No B.S. We've served 300,000 customers in the past 3 years. There are 150,000,000 coffee drinkers left. We're less than 1% done. Come join us for the remaining 99%.
