Passion to Profession: Building Sports Cards Live One Saturday at a Time with Jeremy Lee
Jeremy Lee has become one of the most trusted voices in sports card media.
But before Sports Cards Live became a Saturday night destination for collectors, Jeremy was balancing a career in finance while building relationships, studying the hobby, and creating content because he loved the cards.
