    Hi, I’m Robleh Jama and I have this thing….it’s a really bad case of Curiosity. This undying drive to know more things, to ask “why”, “how come”, has been with me for as long as I can remember. Some of my other favorite questions are “why not”, “how can I make a difference”, “what’s next”!?

    One of the most annoying symptoms that appears as a result of my inquisitive nature is this urge to come up with ideas and make them happen. This explains why I’m always Busy Building Things and love to be around people who are Busy Building Things. You can find me on Tumblr and  Twitter @robjama.

    PAST

    Co-founded Sneakerplay, an invite-only social network for fans of all things sneakers and street culture. What started as a”wouldn’t it be cool” idea eventually grew into a vibrant global community of 20,000+ like minded individuals and a profitable online business. Sneakerplay has received international attention from a variety of mainstream media outlets including the New York Times, USA Today, Wired and blogs like Techcrunch, Hypebeast, Mashable and Cool Hunting. We also had an opportunity to work with a stellar list of brands that included Nike, Adidas, Microsoft and EA Sports. Sneakerplay was acquired in early 2009.
