Sneaker-head, serial entrepreneur, thrill-seeker and proud founder of DetraPel, David Zamarin is the chief visionary behind his company which he brought to life in 2013 at the young age of 15.  David’s passion and urgency to disrupt the growing trajectory of global challenges directly caused by irresponsible manufacturing, is the driving force for the company’s philosophy and purpose which is rooted in a commitment to develop innovative formulas that reduce environmental impacts and negative health effects. While David spends most of his time working on developing DetraPel, he recently graduated Magna Cum Laude from Babson College where he received the Entrepreneurship Award. A member of several youth entrepreneurship advisory boards, David seeks to give back to the entrepreneurship community and ignite the minds of young aspiring leaders.

Ania’s passion for people is what excites her most about brand and product marketing. Her biggest motivator is creating and marketing sustainable products that make a positive impact on people’s lives.
A strategic thinker, with strong collaborative skills, she faces every challenge with a “can-do” attitude. Being organized and solution oriented has contributed to her fast growth in product marketing. At DetraPel she is a generator of positive and encouraging team environments. And when she’s not encouraging comradery in the office, Ania can be found working from an airport where she’s often going to scratch her travel itch.
