Perfy’s story starts about 5 years ago when a series of tragic events happened in my life. In 2017 my mom was diagnosed. Later that year, my older brother Ralph had a stroke and is still partially paralyzed to this day. In 2018 I lost my best friend Scott to an accidental fentanyl overdose. In 2019 I lost my cousin to diabetes. In 2020 I lost my old roommate of 5 years to suicide. Then the pandemic hit. And in that same time frame I lost another dozen friends. As a result I developed some terrible habits, put on a bunch of weight, and developed pre diabetes (which I’ve since reversed). I needed to climb my way out. And in doing so I wanted to help others going through what I was going through. So I created Perfy. A low sugar soda for a happy you. And I named it after my mom. When I was just two years old I’d say “hey ma you’re Perfy.” So I named the company after her.
