"I customize playing cards. It all started when I was 16 and I got injured in my back and couldn't play tennis. I had something called spondylolisthesis. The muscles around my back were weak and couldn't support my spine. One of the discs cracked. After that, I had to sit out for months. My rehab was strengthening all the muscles in my core and back and then staying still for hours. I was bored, so I went to the store and picked up a deck of cards. I couldn't walk or play tennis so I needed a hobby and I learned how to throw cards and do slight of hand.I decided to launch my own company and make my own decks. I found some designers and made it happen."
