In Raider's case he walks his commute to his office in New York City, which takes about 20 minutes. "But I usually extend it a little bit by grabbing a cup of coffee on the way," he says.
While many people listen to music or podcasts on their commute, Raider intentionally does not. "Instead, I either use the time to think through the day ahead, what are the most important things I need to focus on and who on our team I want to be sure to spend time with," he says. Sometimes Raider will have people join him, so his first meeting of the day can be a "walk and talk." In 2010, when Raider was still in business school at Wharton, he founded the direct-to-consumer eyeglasses company, Warby Parker, with his classmates Neil Blumenthal, Dave Gilboa and Andy Hunt. Then in 2013, he co-founded the shaving brand Harry's with Andy Katz-Mayfield.
As of March 2018, Warby Parker was valued at $1.75 billion, after raising $300 million in funding, the New York Times
