Get to know me:
πIn 2001, I signed my first NFL contract with the San Francisco 49ers and achieved a goal I set for myself when I was 10 years old. I spent the next 7 years in the NFL, won a Super Bowl with the Patriots, and lived my dream. And then at the age of 30… it was over. For the next several years, I struggled to find myself again. Can you relate? I was unsure …. Who was I without football? What was I passionate about? What could I offer the world? How could I make an impact? I realized that all of those years spent pursuing… realizing… and living the dream of playing Pro Football taught me some incredibly valuable lessons. Lessons about what it takes to be a High Performer, how to come back from failure, and how to become and live your absolute best self every single day. I want to share that information with the world and that is why I created BE A PRO.
