About Us
Hello! We are Shannon and Joe and together with our son Valentino, we run Brickeology. We are all truly passionate about LEGO®, whether it be building sets, organizing pieces, designing brand new builds, or teaching LEGO to others, we truly live the LEGO® life. We often joke that our house is more like a LEGO® store than a house because of how much LEGO® we have.
How We Started:
Valentino was given his first LEGO® set when he was three years old (a tiny Star Wars Millennium Falcon), and he was immediately hooked. As his parents, we recognized right away that LEGO® wasn’t just going to be a fun toy for him, but a way for him to unlock his creativity, increase his dexterity, and provide him a way to use his critical thinking skills. All Valentino knew, though, was that he was having fun and he was passionate about Legos.
After several family trips to LEGO® stores and discovering the world of LEGO® for ourselves, we eventually became hooked and LEGO® building became the family pastime. Fast forward several years, a couple hundred LEGO® sets, and several thousand LEGO® pieces, the desire to share the passion for LEGO® with the world was born, and we named it Brickeology (don’t forget the E).
Our vision is to create a unique place where LEGO® lovers of all ages can come to not only shop for new and used LEGO® sets and pieces, but where we can foster a community of LEGO® enthusiasts (young and old), offer learning, and help share our love of LEGO® with the world.
