With degrees in materials engineering and biomedical engineering from California Polytechnic State University – San Louis Obispo, Brent initially worked in the nanotech field. However, his love for his childhood hobby of trading cards saw him set his engineering career aside in 2012 to pursue the growth of PWCC full time. Brent leads the company with his wife, Betsy.
