James Smith – Co-Founder,  Giraffe Bath & Body

JamesSmithWhen former firefighter and paramedic James Smith, and his registered nurse wife Kathryn, partnered with longtime friend Jeff Sacks, they set out to design a shaving accessory that would revolutionize the shaving world.

The goal was to develop a razor extension handle that would specifically help women who were unable to shave their legs due to the increasing discomfort from symptoms associated with the second and third trimester of pregnancy. The Result was the Giraffe Razor Extension Handle, designed to customize the length and angle of a disposable or reusable razor
