Longtime WizKids President Justin Ziran is moving to Sirius Dice as Partner and Co-President, the company announced. He joins Sirius Dice Co-Founders Lax Chandra and Tina Trenkler, re-uniting a trio that crossed paths at WizKids in the late 00s.
Ziran had been President at WizKids since 2012 (he took over from Chandra, see "Management Change at WizKids"), a period when the company's product lines and sales expanded dramatically. He's particularly experienced in collectible products, a category that Sirius Dice is expanding into aggressively (see "’D&D Monster Mystery Pins’").
"Joining Sirius Dice feels like coming home," Ziran said in a statement accompanying the announcement. "I can’t wait to help expand what’s possible in gaming accessories and connect our products with fans around the world."
"Tina, Justin, and I have a long history of working together," Sirius Co-Founder Chandra said. "With Justin's creativity and vision, we’re ready to grow our product lines and build even stronger connections with the gaming community we love."
