Teddy Hamilton - CEO

Teddy Hamilton is the CEO and Founder of Eight Zero.

Teddy identified a need for contemporary flameless Judaica while talking with his grandfather, who couldn’t use a traditional Hanukkah menorah in his workplace. 

Outside his business, Teddy is an accomplished poet with two collections of poetry and multiple opinion pieces in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. He’s also accredited in physics from both Northwestern University and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology — and has a strong curiosity for quantum physics. You’ll often find him doing CrossFit, traveling, cooking, playing trombone, or spending quality time with family and friends.
