Eight years of work can be copied in six months. It wasn't inevitable that it was going to work. A stolen design is stolen time.

'We've always been competitive. I yell at Liam all the time, 'Move faster! Work harder!' I'm like the trainer because I design all the workouts and implement and enforce them.

I'm not like most designers, who have to set sail on an exotic getaway to get inspired. Most of the time, it's on my walk to work, or sitting in the subway and seeing something random or out of context.

I wanted to be a sneaker designer since I was 10; it was my dream to work at Nike and design signature shoes for Michael Jordan and Penny Hardaway. When it was time to select high schools, I wanted to go to one that would help me get a jump-start on my dream.
