ABOUT THE OWNER
A pop culture enthusiast with a passion for vintage comics and toys, I am a life-long Creative.
On my 16th birthday (in 1986), I told my late father that I wanted to open a vintage toy store “when I grow up.” Even as a kid, I dreamed of a safe, entertaining and social space for like-minded people.
Two years later, I attended The School of Art at The University of Michigan, earning a BFA degree in Graphic Design and Illustration, followed by a rewarding career as an Art Director and published author. But the most rewarding job title of my life? Definitely “Stay-at-Home dad” to Chester, who is now 10 years old. When Chester was in pre-school, we constantly dreamed up entertaining capers and adventures. And when COVID hit, we had to take our independent play to another level, desperate to fill the social and interactive void the pandemic created. Now Chester is entering 5th grade, and I love watching him spread his independent wings. Chester is developing a sense of self while discovering social dynamics. To facilitate this growth, we regularly hosted playdates, and we created a Monday after-school Drawing Club for Chester and his pals during the school year.
I may never open that vintage toy store. But I believe we created something even better, and we hope you will join us in making Chester’s Clubhouse something truly special.
