I’m Steph, the owner of Time Preserved. I grew up in El Paso, Texas, where I learned the value of hard work, resilience, and community from an early age. After graduating high school, I joined the Army—a decision that would shape much of who I am today. My time in service gave me the opportunity to travel to multiple countries, experience different cultures, and develop a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and detail.

Today, I live in the suburbs of Northern Virginia with my wife, our two kids, two cats, and our dog. Family is at the center of everything I do, and they are a constant source of inspiration in my life and work.

After spending over a decade in federal service, I made the decision to step away and pursue something more personal—something I was truly passionate about. That passion led me to collecting watches and creating handmade items. What started as an interest quickly grew into something much more meaningful.

This new endeavor allows me to express my creativity, share my passion with others, and build something of my own. It also gives me the flexibility to be present for my family while doing work I genuinely love.

Every piece I create and every watch I curate reflects my journey, my experiences, and my commitment to quality and authenticity. Thank you for being part of this story.
