Did You Know We Have a Really Cool Chairman of the Board?

by Dani Greer

Meet Robbie Vann-AdibÈ

  

I am a manager and entrepreneur, as well as a technologist and designer of processes and systems, and now the Chairman of the Board of Little Pickle Press. I like asking the question, “what if we threw conventional wisdom out the window and started completely from scratch?”

One thing I am proud of:

My family

Two of my heroes:

1. Martin Luther King, Jr.

2. Leonardo da Vinci

Three things I really enjoy doing:

1. Yoga

2. Snowboarding

3. Playing soccer with my children

Four things on my Bucket List:

1. Trekking in the Himalayas

2. Travel in the Amazon Basin

3. Safari in Africa

4. Urdhva Padmasana in Shirshasana

Five ways I am Global, Green, and Present:

1. My wife and I have 4 nationalities between us (Global)

2. My children attend a bi-lingual immersion Mandarin/English school (Global)

3. I bought farmland and planted a 100-tree orchard that is completely organic using no chemicals whatsoever (Green)

4. My kids yell at me when I put paper in the wrong dustbin (Green)

5. I practice yoga (Present)

Six of my favorite children’s books:

1. Guess How Much I Love You by Sam McBratney

2. Slinky Malinki by Lynley Dodd

3. Dear Zoo by Rod Campbell

4. The Sneetches and Other Stories by Dr. Seuss

5. Stone Soup by various authors

6. The Lion Who Wanted To Love by Giles Andreae and David Wojtowycz
