Shannen Tanabe is the owner of A Sight for Sport
Eyes, and the author of this page. She has a degree in Marketing
from USC, and is a board certified dispensing optician. She has
worked in the optical industry for over 7 years, and saw this as a
growing niche in the industry. She is an aspiring business woman,
been published in several trade journals as an expert in the field
of sports eyewear and sunglasses.
A Sight for Sport Eyes has been in operation since
September 1996. It was founded to educate the consumer about the
growing risk of eye injuries and the permanence of their damage.
Sports eyewear is an up and coming niche in the optical market, as
more and more people are taking the necessary precautions to protect
their eyes. Shannen has always loved and participated in many
sports, and saw this a perfect opportunity to help the public learn
more about these products. The sports collectibles part of the
business was founded on a fluke, as the product was put up for
decoration in the storefront. People began to ask about purchasing
the product, and with extra floor space, and an unused upstairs
balcony, the collectibles store emerged. It is managed by both
Shannen and her father, who has been a avid sports collector his
whole life. |
