Our Team

 

Noah Friedman

Co-Founder

Noah had the original idea for 6FTCloser. He made and sent the first few videos himself to friends-of-friends who were doctors and nurses to see if his words would have any impact. Noah was the COO of the alcohol analytics company 3x3, is an investor at Loeb NYC and a prominent angel investor in the New York City community, and has his hand in many entrepreneurial ventures.

Ben Sharf

Co-Founder

Ben was the glue that kept 6FTCloser running day-to-day after the initial few months. He managed operations, built new partnerships and challenges, and expanded 6FTCloser to new heights. Ben graduated from Colgate University, where he was on the Division 1 hockey team, and is currently working in Business Development at GoPuff amongst several other entrepreneurial ventures.
