Through rejection, I embraced a more purposeful me and elevated my life to new levels.
Second Chance Athletes
I was an athlete with promising potential and a bright future. These hopes and dreams came to a crashing halt when a sudden injury ended my career. After finding an identity and purpose in my life beyond sports, I started a non-profit organization called Second Chance Athletes to help former and forgotten athletes do the same.
