    Hello all, I am a very recently certified antiques appraiser. I manage a brick and mortar antique store that will be shutting its doors on April 22, 2017. I am obsessed with research and learning everything I can get my hands on relating to antiques. I am interested in all eras and all studies and have yet to decide on a particular field to pursue.

    I'm sorry too. It was my dream career, however, I'm always hopeful.

    I am very excited to be here and can't wait to learn from everyone. I'm just beginning my journey in the world of antiques. I've been immersed in it for just over a year. Before that I was just a casual collector of whatever caught my eye and an avid collector of first edition books. I completed my certification in 6 months, and the knowledge I gained was incredible, and a great base to start. But I have so so much to learn about everything.
