When James Costa sets out to do something, he does it.

Straight out of college he started a denim company with zero experience. That hustle inspired the HBO show, *How to Make it in America*.

Then he took a $20M/year fashion company to $40M in just one year.

He cofounded a fashion company with former NFL player, Jared Cook.

And now he’s taken his breadth of experience along with his love for web3 and created Clubhouse Archives, a web3-native fashion company that’s delivering premium fashion in an all new way.
