Where you’re from:
Westbrook, Maine

The first watch that moved you:
A friend’s Blancpain Leman Split Seconds Chronograph.

Why:
It was number 7 of 12 and was the first fine watch I'd ever handled. I loved the look right away too!

Day-to-day:
I spend my days speaking with clients via phone or email, working in our showroom, preparing watches for shipping and inspecting them in order to answer clients' questions. Working with our customers to help find the right watch for them and ensuring they are happy with their purchase brings me the most satisfaction.

Grail:
A yellow gold AP Perpetual Calendar from the 1980s – along the lines of a 25548BA or 25661. The story of APs watchmakers working after hours in secret to come up with its movement really appealed to me - and the fact that APs own historians credit it with saving the company doesn't hurt either!

The world should know:
I’ve always had a love for all things mechanical, starting with a love of cars from a young age that has focused on vintage Alfa Romeo. I tried my hand at restoring them but seem to be better at taking things apart than putting them back together! That fascination naturally progressed to watches and other things. 

Bonus:
In my free time I enjoy learning about classic cars and watches, reading, and watching movies.
