These life-long friends, surfers and New Jersey Natives walk us through their early years hustling in the hyper competitive NYC real estate market, how their first run at building a video product sparked the idea for the VTS platform, and what it feels like to disrupt a legacy industry that by all accounts could not and would not ever change.
