After graduation, he started working at the family business, Olympic Sporting Goods and Trophy, in 1972. After a few years, he took over the company and pioneered new ways to create graphics that were not adopted by most of the trophy business until many years later.

Later in life Sid became an avid golfer, to the delight of all his friends. Sid and his wife Lisa enjoyed many weekends and vacations playing with all of them.
Sid developed many friendships through his business. He worked with the Worcester schools, colleges, and many others to deliver specialty products for all types of awards. Olympic Trophy will continue to provide outstanding products to the community in his name.
