My Bio:
From Global Tech Executive to Passionate Collector & Founder
Since 1995, I’ve worked as a technical sales engineer and technology executive, partnering with companies across the globe. Throughout my career—and while raising a beautiful family—I’ve been fortunate to travel extensively, experiencing incredible adventures and meeting people from all walks of life.
What began as a small moment with my daughter at Disney World—trading a few pins—sparked a journey that would eventually become a lifelong passion. I had already been collecting sports memorabilia for over two decades, but that vacation with my daughter introduced me to the joy and community of Disney pin trading.
Years later, as an Airbnb guest with a family of Disney enthusiasts, I was reintroduced to the world of Disney collectibles, this time with a deeper appreciation. That experience reignited a spark in me, merging my collector’s spirit with a growing love for Disney history and memorabilia.
Over time, what started as a hobby has evolved into a true passion. The Disneyland Inspire Key has allowed me to spend countless days in the park—meeting fellow collectors, trading unique pieces, and attending events around the world. Every pin, every signed photo, every limited-edition piece I’ve collected tells a story, not just of Disney or sports, but of the connections I've made along the way.
Now, I’m taking the next step: transforming this passion into a business.
With decades of global business experience, a deeply rooted collector's mindset, and a trusted network of fellow enthusiasts and traders, I’m excited to bring my collection—and the stories behind it—to the world. Whether it's through curated sales, exclusive drops, or collaborative events, this business will be about more than just memorabilia—it will be about community, nostalgia, and building authentic relationships.
