Underwear, Uncertainty & Unbreakable Grit with Luigi La Tona
Luigi La Tona is the founder of ThunderWear Asia, empowering men in their choices of the first clothing items they put on each day and helping them ‘feel like thunder, down under’. Currently, he lives in Singapore with his family.
Before Luigi became an entrepreneur, he started his career as a volunteer firefighter in Canada while working at Home Depot. After backpacking around the world and becoming a scuba diving instructor while teaching in various countries, he moved to Hong Kong to work in corporate for a number of years and then relocated to Singapore in 2019, where he pursued an MBA at the National University of Singapore.
