Our Story
“DRY-zeez” was created in Miami by two sisters, busy moms, and business owners. From sleeping with wet hair, to night sweats and menopause, to excessive drooling... DryZzz's mission is simple: to help YOU get a better night’s sleep.
Born from an 8th Grade Invention Convention
Founder Linda Villena's daughter had an invention convention at school and needed an idea that solves an everyday problem. It was late and Julia had wet hair from her shower. As she placed a towel on her pillow, Linda had the idea… and the DryZzz was born.
Miami Moms on a Mission for Better Sleep
Sisters Linda Schwitalla Villena and Susan Schwitalla Culmo are native Miamians who were stay-at-home moms, and now run a successful accounting and QuickBooks consulting business from their home offices. For over 10 years, they have worked on bringing their DryZzz pillowcase to the market, helping thousands of people get a better night's sleep.
10 Years and Thousands of Pillowcases Later...
Linda and Susan started out selling DryZzz's at local markets and trade shows in South Florida. DryZzz has been featured on the Kelly Clarkson Show, Good Morning America, The View, the Today Show as well as online publications Allure, Popsugar, BuzzFeed, and more.
A portion of our proceeds is donated to Sofia’s Hope, Inc. to fund research related to pediatric cancer and cardiac damage caused by chemotherapy. It is a Not-For-Profit Corporation founded in memory of Linda’s daughter’s friend, Sofia Blanco.
