Conclave 2026

I was born in New York and raised in sunny Venice, Florida. As a third-generation jeweler, I grew up in the jewelry industry after my grandparents founded Reflections in Gold more than 45 years ago. I credit much of my knowledge to the lessons they taught him, along with the invaluable relationships I have built through industry buying groups and trusted vendors. My philosophy is simple: as an owner, you should never stop learning, evolving, and adapting. I am passionate about creating a positive workplace culture. I believe that investing in my team is one of the greatest investments a business can make, holding weekly meetings and training sessions while maintaining an open-door policy where every employee feels comfortable asking questions and sharing ideas. Marketing through social media has become one of my greatest passions. By creating engaging, educational, and often humorous content, I enjoy showcasing the personalities behind Reflections in Gold. my goal is for customers to recognize familiar faces before they ever walk through the door, making the jewelry-buying experience feel welcoming and personal. Giving back to the Venice community is equally important to me. I believe the store's success is a direct reflection of the support it has received over the years, and as the business continues to grow, so does his commitment to supporting the community that has supported my family for generations. Outside of the store, I enjoy golfing, spending time with his wife and son, and embracing my inner "big kid" through video games and collecting Pokémon cards.
