MPE Grading: A Veteran-Owned Solution for Card Collectors


MPE Grading was founded by a family of passionate collectors—my father, my brother, and myself. With over 40 years of combined experience, we understand the deep connection every collector has with their cards, whether they’re sports cards, TCG cards, or rare collectibles. Each card represents a memory, a milestone, or a piece of history, and we believe your collection deserves the best care and protection.


As a proud veteran of the United States Army, I had the honor of serving our nation during Operation Iraqi Freedom from 2003 to 2005. My military service, which spanned from 2000 to 2008, instilled in me the values of duty, resilience, and integrity—principles that continue to guide me today.


After hanging up my uniform, I channeled my passion for service into many years in the Customer Service industry in rental and sales. From that experience, into MPE Grading, a Veteran Owned Business dedicated to bringing integrity and transparency to the world of card grading. Here at MPE Grading, we understand that every card tells a story. Each card represents cherished memories, personal milestones, and sometimes even a slice of history. As a veteran, I know the importance of preserving and honoring legacies, and here at MPE we aim to do just that for our community and, especially, for our fellow veterans.


Our mission is to provide quality card grading solutions for everyone—from the passionate collector with a low-budget card to those in pursuit of personal collections with higher stakes. We envision a future where even the most modest pieces are treated with the respect they deserve. Our commitment to integrity ensures that each card is graded fairly and accurately, embodying the principles I upheld in the military.


At MPE Grading, we take pride in our shared experiences and the mission of serving our community. We believe in making a difference, one card at a time, and aim to pave the way for greater recognition and respect for all grades of cards – not just the high-end pieces. We envision a grading service where every collector, regardless of budget, feels valued and empowered.


As we look toward the future, our team is excited to make an indelible mark on the history of card grading, driven by our unwavering commitment to quality and fairness.


MPE Grading is more than a business; it’s a mission rooted in service, integrity, and the belief that everyone deserves to have their collection recognized. Together, we can ensure that every card finds its rightful place in the tapestry of history, bridging the gap between passion and preservation. Thank you for being part of our journey as we continue to serve our community and fellow veterans with pride.
