About World Wide Traders Partners

In 2010, my journey with World Wide Traders (WWT) commenced when I assumed the role of show manager. Little did I anticipate that this initial step would serve as a launchpad for an extraordinary professional metamorphosis, propelling me to the prestigious position of president by 2012.

My professional trajectory has been intricately woven with collaborations with numerous chapters of the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors (NAWCC) and various other industry organizations. A focal point of my responsibilities has been the intricate planning and flawless execution of trade shows that span the nation. This demanding role involves navigating complex logistics, adept negotiation of deals with stakeholders, and the formulation of robust marketing strategies that resonate with our diverse audience.

Navigating the ever-evolving landscape of the watch and jewelry industry requires foresight and adaptability. Under my stewardship, WWT has not only embraced change but has also thrived in it. The ability to anticipate industry trends, coupled with a proactive approach to innovation, has positioned WWT as a trailblazer, consistently pushing the boundaries of what a trade show can achieve.

As I reflect on this journey, I am immensely proud of the collective efforts of the dedicated team at WWT. Our success is a testament to the collaborative spirit that defines our organization—a spirit that extends to our partnerships with industry associations and the broader community.

Looking forward, the trajectory of World Wide Traders continues to be one of growth, innovation, and a steadfast commitment to excellence. As we chart new territories and explore fresh avenues, the legacy of our shows will not merely be about timepieces and jewelry but about the enduring impact we've made on an industry that celebrates craftsmanship, heritage, and the ever-ticking march of time.

With nearly three decades of dedicated involvement in the world of vintage watches, I am proud to have played a pivotal role in shaping the landscape of the industry. Currently serving as the Show Director and part owner of the World Wide Traders, Watch, and Jewelry Show, I am responsible for orchestrating the seamless execution of events and managing the dynamic activities on the showroom floor.

My journey as a vintage watch dealer spans an impressive 35 years, during which I owned and operated two distinguished vintage watch stores situated in Philadelphia's oldest jewelry district. This locale served as the backdrop for honing my expertise and establishing a deep-rooted connection with the historical significance of timepieces.

Beyond my operational responsibilities, I have had the privilege of contributing my knowledge to the broader community. As the designated watch expert for Judith Miller books, I have played a crucial role in ensuring the accuracy and depth of information presented in authoritative publications. Additionally, I serve as a consultant to various publications and auction houses, leveraging my extensive experience to provide valuable insights and guidance.

Wrist watches have been my passion since a young age, and over the years, this enthusiasm has evolved into a profound understanding of the intricacies and nuances of vintage timepieces. As time passes, my commitment to continuous learning has only intensified, enabling me to stay at the forefront of industry trends and developments.

In reflecting on my journey, I am grateful for the opportunities to contribute to the rich tapestry of the vintage watch community. My unwavering dedication to excellence and authenticity has not only defined my career but has also left an indelible mark on the industry.

I look forward to the continued exploration of the ever-evolving world of wristwatches and the prospect of furthering my contributions to its legacy.
