Andrew , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. What’s the backstory behind how you came up with the idea for your business?

My partner Roula Elias and I met about 10 years ago and we wanted to figure a way of spending as much time together as possible while also bringing together everything we love.

I was born in the U.S and raised in England from the age of five returning to the states at 23. my transatlantic upbringing shaped my love for both classic European aesthetic and American creativity.. Roula was born in Boston to Greek immigrant parents, bringing deep, cultural roots, Mediterranean warmth and a passion for hospitality to everything she does. I have been cooking since I was 13 years old. I’ve always dabbled in something artistic ever since I can remember such as photography, shooting film, or just helping friends with their projects. We both have always traveled , embracing other cultures, whether it would be their food or history. Combining all of these just seemed like a natural step. Our brand is unique …it’s us.. it’s basically an extension of what we’ve been doing our whole lives. Birdseyeviewra offers – Fine Art Photography Prints.

How’d you meet your business partner?

Birdseyeviewra started we often say Long before the business. when two soul’s both searching for something deeper crossed paths in the most unexpected way.
I was a chef hosting a private cooking class and dinner. In an upscale club. Roula was one of 12 women attending that night. what began as a shared evening of food and conversation quietly became the start of something far greater. At the time we were both coming from difficult unhappy chapters in our life, but that that night Marked a shift, the moment we both felt seen understood and deeply connected. Over the years that connection grew through long conversations, creative dreaming, and the realization that if you keep doing the same thing over and over and keep expecting a different result, it’s just not going to happen. so we changed it up. we combined our passions, food, photography, travel, and storytelling, and created Birdseyeviewra
