ROOZT INTERVIEW WITH LSTN FOUNDER

 

 Exclusive Roozt Interview with LSTN Founder, Bridget Hilton: 

 Roozt: So, what’s the story behind starting LSTN?
 Bridget: A few months ago, I saw a video on YouTube of a woman my age hearing for the first time. It was incredibly moving to watch, and I realized how much    we take hearing music, nature, laughter and our friends and families voices for granted. I knew immediately that I needed to figure out a way to give people the joy of hearing on a larger scale.

 Roozt: That’s so freakin’ cool that it gives us goosebumps. Who inspired you?

 Bridget: Warby Parker was a big inspiration. If they could give sight for every pair of eye glasses sold, I could find a way to give hearing. Selling unique and  fashionable headphones and partnering with an amazing charity for the deaf was the answer.

Roozt: That’s pretty brilliant. How did you arrive at this conclusion?

Bridget: I like the idea of drilling down on your passions and figuring out how to make them work together.

Roozt: We hear that! Speaking of passions… what are yours?

Bridget: I’m passionate about music, charity, and the environment. LSTN is a way to combine all of those things. We make high quality wooden headphones. For every pair we sell, we give the gift of hearing to a child in a deaf school.

Roozt: Very inspiring. But you don’t just stop there do you…

Bridget: No… actually all our earphones are eco-friendly as well. The exotic wood we use is scrap wood from furniture manufacturers that would have otherwise been wasted  - pieces too small for a table or chair for example, turn out to be perfect to make headphones out of. Good for your ears, good for the environment.

Roozt: So rad. So, so rad. Rock on, Bridget, here’s to LSTN Headphone’s success!
