What started as something I genuinely enjoyed doing eventually grew into something much bigger. I started out selling patches on Facebook and eBay, experimenting with different colors, materials, and ideas that I hadn’t seen anywhere else. After doing that for a couple of years, I decided to take it more seriously and officially launched Wa11ace in October 2025.

For me, the best part is still the creative process. I enjoy taking an idea and figuring out how to turn it into something people will actually want to wear or collect. Some designs are inspired by places, history, law enforcement, or simply an idea I think would look great on a patch. Whatever the inspiration is, I always try to put my own spin on it and create something a little different.

As a member of the nation’s finest police department, I’m especially proud to create Products for D.C. , while continuing to come up with designs for people well beyond the area.

More than anything, I appreciate every person who has bought something, shared my work, given me feedback, or supported me since the early Facebook and eBay days. Seeing people enjoy something I created is still one of the best parts of doing this.

Thank you for supporting the site and being part of what I’m building.
