Sean Williams

President

An executive with unique global tech industry leadership experience, Sean is privileged to help families, businesses, and organizations preserve their media, tell their stories & celebrate their legacies.

Sean grew up in Southern California. After learning to think & write in the crucible of the English program at UC Santa Barbara, he was fortunate to stumble into a small local startup called Belkin Components. Belkin blasted from its start-up roots as a printer cable company to a worldwide leader in computer connectivity, networking, home automation & accessories. Sean initiated & led some of the key strategic initiatives that drove growth to over $1 billion in sales. Some highlights were leading product development & marketing for the perennial Inc. 500 company, opening up the first European offices & running Europe, Middle East, & Africa region as well as the North & South American operations.

The need to focus on family arose in 2011 & he made the decision to reduce international travel & the insane schedule to leave Belkin. An extensive search for an acquisition opportunity led to a meeting with the founder of DVD Your Memories, a small company making big waves in the media transfer industry. Sean knew that he had found a new purpose and acquired DVD Your Memories in Dec. 2012. Since then he has been focused on the honor and responsibility of being trusted with the most-prized media possessions of families, businesses, organizations, & celebrities. Sean says, “I am fortunate to be working with a team that’s the best in the world at what they do and am grateful to them & to our loyal customers that recognize it. We love what we do.”

Brian Elwell

General Manager

As General Manager, Brian is responsible for the operations of all of our labs. He combines impeccable technical credentials with a commitment to customer service and care that is hard to find anywhere (just see our Yelp reviews!!). Growing up in San Jose Brian played the saxophone throughout childhood and developed a deep love and attachment to jazz and funk. After graduating from Cal State Long Beach with a degree in Political Science, Brian spent time abroad in Ethiopia using his computer skills to help scale a new university network there. Returning back to the States, he was originally the videotape technician, but quickly rose to become manager of the DVD Your Memories office in Culver City from it’s opening in 2011 through 2014. A bit of a renaissance man, Brian continues to develop his technical skills through studying coding (Java and Python), and relaxes through his practices of aqua-scaping, cooking, and horticulture (especially Bonsai).
