Drew Levich – Maverick #277
Founder of Dammit Dolls
Sherman Oaks, California
drewlevich@gmail.com
While working a full-time 9-5 job, Drew risked it all and started Dammit Dolls out of the back of his Prius. With a bit of humility, street smarts and determination, Drew built his business into a multi-million dollar, multi-line and multi-national product line. He sold it this past year, but is working as an independent brand, product strategy and marketing consultant.
Drew also wanted to give back, so he launched DammitCancer, which donates profits to a children’s cancer charity in California.
Currently, he is working on redeveloping an old warehouse building into creative offices in Downtown San Diego. In his spare time, Drew flies a Cesena, tries to cook and puts off the gym until tomorrow.
