Doug Otto, From Surfer Dude To Co-Founder & CEO of Deckers

9/25/2017; 45 minutes

Upon graduation from UCSB, Doug Otto decided he wanted to surf, rather than taking a job. To pay his bills, he began making flip flops in his garage. He turned this humble beginning into Deckers Brands, an International, public company, generating billions in sales from brands it owns such as UGG, Teva, Sanuk, HOKA, and Ahnu.
