  • Founder

    As Founder and CEO of WLM Group, I lead a diversified enterprise that includes WLM Resale and Cork Creations. I established WLM Group to prove that sustainability and business innovation can thrive together. What started with a single pallet of unsold products in my garage has become a multi-channel operation dedicated to luxury resale, circular design, and purposeful growth.

    With WLM Resale, I developed a high-volume business that sources and restores luxury health, beauty, and lifestyle products for renewed circulation. The venture gives premium goods a second life, reduces waste, and creates value through disciplined sourcing and market insight.

    Cork Creations, my second venture, transforms reclaimed wine corks into refined, sustainable home décor. The brand reflects WLM Group’s mission to turn overlooked materials into products that showcase craftsmanship, design, and environmental responsibility. I also worked with the Children’s AIDS Art Programme (CAAP), a nonprofit supporting children affected by HIV and AIDS across Africa. I contributed to donor outreach, crisis coordination, and operational support—an experience that deepened my belief that business can be both profitable and compassionate.

    In addition to my entrepreneurial work, I taught golf as a developmental instructor, mentoring younger players to build skill and confidence on and off the course. This experience reinforced my commitment to mentorship, leadership, and patience—values I apply in business.

    Raised in Mill Valley, California, I developed an early passion for entrepreneurship, markets, and design. My goal is to build WLM Group into a modern, vertically integrated enterprise defined by integrity, sustainability, and lasting impact.
