I am a creative entrepreneur obsessed with creating the best luxury products accompanied with the most incredible customer experience. I co-founded Alex Crown, a luxury brand focused on the Watch Collector -- we specialize in bespoke watch straps and sartorial clothing. In 3+ short years, we have become the most dominant name in bespoke watch straps in the serious Watch Collector space. We are well known especially in NYC, Chicago, and Miami. Our straps go on watches such as Patek Philippe, F.P. Journe, De Bethune, Akrivia / Rexhep Rexhepi, A. Lange & Sohne, and more. Customers love us because of 4 reasons: (1) our creative designs, (2) best-in-class quality, (3) watch collecting expertise, and (4) white-glove customer service. All of our Designs are proudly created in-house. We are frequently copied; as they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery :)Our startup was founded in 2020, 1 month before the COVID-19 pandemic. We are 100% bootstrapped and our main focus is profitable organic growth with high customer retention. Our products and services are very sticky! We have 2xed our growth every year. We have a small, passionate team with deep expertise in watches and straps, and we LOVE what we do.Check us out on Instagram at @alexcrownlive.Previously, I ran Product & Operations at OppFi, a high-growth FinTech that provides socially responsible loan products. I was employee #15, grew them to 400+, 31xed revenue, and 22xed customer base. We were on Inc. 500's Fastest Growing Companies for 4 consecutive years, #4 on Crain's Fast 50, and #6 on Glassdoor's Best Places to Work. We built something really special there and IPOed in 2021.I started my career by helping people buy & sell companies, and executed >$3B in deals. As much as I love numbers, I am happiest when I embrace my creative side. In my spare time I mentor young entrepreneurs, write, create art, and rock climb.
