Today on Entrepreneur Effect our host is joined by Lindsey Phillips Creator and Founder of Lindsay Phillips Switchflops. Phillips was born in Clearwater, Florida on Dec 7, 1984. Her father, Paul Phillips, is a cardiologist and her mother, Liz Phillips, worked as a nurse. Phillips attended Berkeley Preparatory School in Tampa, Florida. It was during this time that Lindsay developed the concept for sandals that would eventually lead her to launch SwitchFlops - interchangeable flip-flops with removable straps to match any outfit. Encouraged by the favorable responses she received after creating ceramic flips flops – part of an art class project – she began expanding her vision by toying with the idea of creating colorful straps and buttons that could diversify the look of just one pair of flip-flops. She soon realized that by using hook-and-loop fasteners, her vision of “Change Your Look, Not Your Sole” was complete. By the end of her high school career, Phillips applied for a patent.
Following graduation from Berkeley Prep in 2003, she attended Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida, interning with Ralph Lauren Corporation in New York City during two of her summer breaks. She also attended Semester at Sea, a shipboard, global study abroad program, during which she simultaneously studied and toured several countries including Venezuela, Brazil, South Africa, the Republic of Mauritius, Myanmar, India, Vietnam, China, and Japan. Phillips has frequently commented that her travels abroad have greatly influenced her designs. She graduated in 2007 with a BA in Art History and a minor in communications.
