Growing up, I was immersed in the world of sports, playing football and basketball until an injury shifted my path. While I could no longer compete on the field, my passion for the game only deepened. That turning point ignited a vision to lead behind the scenes and make a lasting impact on the sports industry.
I am the Founder and CEO of DTS Sports & Entertainment, a sports marketing and athlete representation agency focused on empowering student-athletes through strategic NIL guidance, brand building, and holistic development. Through DTS, I’ve worked with top collegiate athletes and facilitated partnerships with nationally recognized brands, helping athletes capitalize on their platforms with integrity and purpose.
My journey has been defined by leadership, resilience, and a relentless drive to succeed, not just for myself, but for those I represent and uplift. From holding executive positions in student organizations to mentoring peers and leading campus initiatives, I’ve made it my mission to blend business, service, and innovation in everything I do.
