MY PET LOVING STORY
Hi, my name is JJ Storsved, I am currently 18 years old and I would like to share a bit about myself with you, and the mission I am on.
I live in North Carolina, I am a high school senior. At the time of writing this, I was still working on the design of my first product. Currently, I'm working a low-paying job at a restaurant. I had the option of buying a new car or starting this business. You can see what I picked. A few things I'm very passionate about are animals, the planet, and entrepreneurship. As you can see I figured out how to combine all three of those.
From a young age, I've always cared for animals, their well-being, and the environment as a whole. I remember being in elementary school and learning about the effects of pollution on the environment and the impact on animals. It made me so mad, five year old me was fuming at the fact that people were willing to do this to the planet. For a long time, I avoided the subject, refused to talk about it, and acted like it didn't bother me because it made me so upset. I have now decided to do something about it. I'm building a business that is in the best interest of all of us. We all call Earth home, we need to take care of it. That is why I'm embarking on this journey of starting Nordic.
The name Nordic isn't just pulled out of thin air either. My grandfather used to own a business called Nordic Blading, he farmed in Minnesota for many years. The company eventually ended, so I'm continuing the name and hoping to turn it into a multi-million dollar company one day.
I remember being young and my dad brought me down to the creek behind our house. For years to come after that, I would spend countless hours down at that creek with friends. Over the years we walked miles of it, played games, fished the creek, caught crayfish, countless memories there. I want future generations to be able to enjoy those, the woods, the creeks, and the tiny critters that live there. I don't want to see the day when there is more trash than trees.
I want the world to be more eco-friendly, with less trash and pollution, and a more enjoyable place. Nordic was born from this hope. Nordic is the future because it's working to save the future. That is my mission, that is why I'm doing this. Please join me on my journey and mission to make a brand that is for the planet.
