Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

As a proud dad of 2, I strive to inspire my children, showing them that with hard work, anything is possible. I want them to be proud of me and see the value of dedication, passion, and resilience. While I'm deeply passionate about the watch and jewelry industry, what drives me most is connecting with others, sharing thoughts and ideas, and fostering meaningful relationships. Helping people connect and building bridges between individuals and communities is my greatest motivation.

How do you stay motivated?

I strive to be a role model for my children and others, inspiring them through my actions. I believe no one is ever a complete expert, as there's always more to learn. Every day brings opportunities to improve, gain new skills, and share knowledge with others. Gandhi's quote, "Be the change you want to see in the world," reminds me to lead by example and stay committed to constant growth and making a positive impact.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With $25,000, I’d promote WatchDNA.com and LoveandCapture.com to expand their reach and visibility. I’d hire a contractor to manage tasks, freeing my time to focus on networking, meeting customers, and building relationships. Additionally, I’d use the funds to grow my B2B business, connecting with new jewelers and brands to foster collaborations, drive industry growth, and create strategic partnerships.
