In Memory and Moving Forward

Life has a way of testing our strength in the most profound ways. In 2021, I faced the unimaginable heartbreak of losing my beloved wife to mental illness and suicide, a tragedy that completely reshaped my world. Just three months later, I endured another devastating loss when my father passed away due to Covid. The combination of losing them both was devastating to say the least.

For years, I poured my heart into my construction business and tried to continue my work, but the weight of these losses left me without the motivation to continue. Seeking stability, I transitioned to a role as a project manager for high-end custom remodels. However, this too proved unfulfilling due to my own lack of passion for the work, fueled by and poor compensation and no teamwork within the company.

Now, I am finally turning a new page to embark on a journey that honors my love for the simpler joys in life. I am starting a business that aligns with something I truly enjoy doing—selling & trading cards and collectibles. I grew up collecting tons of baseball cards, Pokémon, Yugioh, and recently rediscovered my passion for collectibles and cards. 

This venture is more than just a hobby and a business; it's a tribute to cherished memories and a step towards healing. Your support means the world to me as I navigate this new beginning. It's not just about financial assistance; it's about believing in second chances and the resilience of the human spirit. Together, we can build something beautiful from the pieces of the past.

Any funds beyond my own business startup will be donated directly to suicide prevention and mental health awareness (American Foundation for Suicide Prevention) in honor of my wife.
