Tony Aguinaldo Co-Founder/CEO
From Rockstar Dreams to Design Logistics Maestro
Hey there, I'm Tony Aguinaldo, Denver's own and a man who swapped guitar chords for logistical rewards. My road started at J.F. Kennedy High, hit a detour through the L.A. music scene, and then looped back to the Mile High City, where I jumped into the furniture world before kickstarting DMI in 2009. Why? Because top-notch service never goes out of style, and hey, everyone loves a smile.
When I'm not steering the DMI ship, I'm either hiking the Rockies, challenging my son to pickleball, strumming my guitar, or discovering new eats with my wife. I live by a simple tune: spread joy, kindness, and cause a bit of laughter every day. It's this energy that fuels my leadership at DMI.
From a tiny office to a warehouse that's like a small village, we've grown – and I'm excited about the future.
Up next? A cool new inventory app and maybe another DMI spot on the map.
My life lesson for the dreamers out there? Keep your cause close, your mind open, and remember – life’s a music video, and you're directing your own hit.
Erick Nieto Co-Founder/COO
From Small Town to Big Dreams
Hi, I'm, Erick your regular small-town guy with big-city dreams. Hailing from eastern Colorado I swapped the slow pace for the fast pace in the city. Moving to Oklahoma I began working for a furniture company assembling furniture and assisting on the sales floor where I learned that customer service would go a long way.
When I'm not managing logistics for DMI, I'm the family man with a DIY streak or the guy who loves to spend quality time with loved ones. My journey into the furniture industry was paved by great and influential people who taught me that a job well done, and customer service should be first and foremost.
It's all about being polite, understanding and having the right crew on board. My philosophy is to be respectful, honest, and empathetic, and the rest will follow.
What's on the horizon? Think DMI bigger, better, and braver. I'm exploring warehouse expansions and dreaming up ways to innovate.
For anyone starting, remember creativity and elbow grease go hand in hand. And Me? If I could turn back time, I'd take even more leaps of faith.
