Finally, in studio is Dariusz Paczuski. Dariusz is the CEO and founder of Rocket Works, creator of Rocket Vodka, a long-time Silicon Valley CMO, and a Polish/Norwegian immigrant. He came to the US from Norway on a swim scholarship to study business. His drive to compete in and out of the water has fueled his passions and professional life since – and even earned him the nickname the Polish Rocket, the inspiration for our brand name.
