This talk was given at a local TEDxSnoIsleLibraries event and produced independently of the TED Conferences. Dog chew CEO, Sujan Shrestha, knows that “aha!” moments can change the world if acted upon.

Sujan is chief executive officer of his family’s fast-growing and community-minded Mukilteo business, Himalayan Dog Chew. The company provides 7,000 farmers in the Himalayas with extra income by purchasing their cheese to make healthy pet snacks.
