Our Story

We built the network we always wished existed.

The collecting world is enormous — auctions, grading, appraisal, marketplaces, dealers, museums, live commerce. Yet the people who power it never had one place to find each other, build careers, and hire the specialists they need. So we built it.

Co-Founder, Collect Talent

I knew working with collectors and building in the collecting space would be my journey since high school. Through luck, great mentors and colleagues, and a lot of grit, I turned that into a career, working at Sotheby's, Christie's, Goldin, and eBay.

Collect Talent is my way of giving back to the community I call home. This industry is more robust, more professional, and more full of opportunity than most people realize, and I want talented job seekers to see that. My goal is for Collect Talent to help people build real, lasting careers in collecting.

Co-Founder, Collect Talent

As the COO at RR Auction, I lived the other side of this problem firsthand, searching for talented appraisers and specialists in an industry where the right hire is hard to find — and even harder when you are searching for deep knowledge in a specific collecting category.

Collect Talent exists because I know what it's like to sit on both sides of the table. I want to make it easier for companies in this industry to find the talent they need, and easier for talented people to find a real career path in collecting.
