What would you like to tell us about yourself, your collecting, or business.

Novice collector of movie memorabilia, movie replicas, screen-used props, and celebrity autographs - mainly from James Bond and Star Wars. Collecting movie memorabilia has been a hobby of mine since I was a child and as I grew older, I began collecting autographs as well.

What is your level of expertise?

Beginner, Intermediate Collector

What are your favorite collecting groups, communities and clubs?

James Bond Autograph club on Facebook. A lot of 1/6 scale figures collecting groups on social media and props and replicas groups on Facebook as well.

Why do you want to join Autograph Live?

Make connections! I value the expertise some of the collectors on this platform have, with collectors from different backgrounds and experiences that in some ways outmatch professional third-party authenticators. I had a few signatures that I wanted to get a second opinion on, mainly a 1990s Sean Connery autograph.

Who can we thank for telling you about us?

No one.

What are your areas of interest?

Modern Hollywood and Stage, Classic Hollywood and Stage, SciFi

Why do you collect?

Passion and escapism. I'm currently a working student in my second year of med school. Through the thick of it all, collecting gives me an unparalleled sense of ease.. just the feeling of walking into a collection room and getting excited when connecting with other collectors of the same interest is a feeling I cannot say I get often.

What is your favorite autograph in your collection?

Roger Moore James Bond autograph from when I was 12 years old. Got it in person too and it was a joy to meet a childhood hero. Also, Ian McDiarmid, as the Emperor from Star Wars Return of the Jedi. Went to a convention and met him when I was 13!

You can ask anyone living or dead for their autograph. Who would it be?

Not an autograph, but I would like to meet Sean Connery.
