Beginning June 1, 2005, Scott Schechter will assume the role of Director of Marketing for all Certified Collectibles Group companies.

He began to formalize his involvement in the industry as an intern at the Smithsonian Institution's National Numismatic Collection before attending Harvard University.

"This is a unique opportunity to work directly with collectors, dealers and industry groups to enrich and enliven the hobbyist experience," comments Schechter.

I am very excited to be a part of what I believe will be a central component in the future of the collectibles industry."
Schechter will play an important role in CCG’s outreach to the collectibles business. "We’ve been looking for someone to fill this position for two years," states Certified Collectibles Group CEO Steve Eichenbaum.
