Having grown up in Miami Joshua Perez found himself jobless after college in Denver, CO until a happenstance meeting changed his career trajectory. Starting as a store manager, and one of the first handful of employees, at Topo Designs flagship store he worked his way into positions revolving around marketing, social media, tech, and more.
