  • Israel Juarbe

    Meet the Founder: Israel

    Israel is the visionary behind Strawclips, a brand that fuses creativity, technology, and entertainment. His journey began in the entertainment industry, where he made a name for himself as an actor in iconic films like The Karate Kid, Dreams Don’t Die, Angels in the Outfield, and more. With a passion for storytelling, he transitioned into editing, contributing to numerous television shows for major networks such as A&E and Ion Television.

    But Israel’s creativity extends far beyond the screen. One night in a crowded nightclub, he almost sipped from someone else’s drink—a simple mistake that sparked a brilliant idea. Realizing the need for a way to easily identify and personalize drinks, he combined his 3D design expertise with his knack for problem-solving to invent the Strawji clip. Crafted from scratch and perfected with the help of his partner, Frankie Avalon Jr., the Strawji clip is a unique and patented solution that not only reorients your drink but also adds a personalized touch to any beverage.

    Israel's invention quickly became the cornerstone of Strawclips, transforming the way people experience celebrations and social gatherings. Today, his innovation stands as a testament to his ability to turn everyday challenges into creative solutions.
