”My sports career started my first year of High school when I joined the Cross Country Team. I was so fit back then running hills for miles, now all I do is eat and sleep 😩. I was the Jersey City Freshman Cross Country Champion that year (thankful @fellykellyjelly didn’t compete in that race 😂).
”The following year I ran indoor and outdoor track and this reminded me that I don’t like working in groups! I was on the 4×4 team and ran anchor and always had to pick up for the people who ran slowly before me 😑. The following year, I realized I wanted to learn more about sports administration so I began shadowing the Athletic Director and managed the girls and boys basketball teams.
”I went to THE @uncchapelhill where I still thought I was going to become a cardiovascular surgeon but after bombing Biology and Physics, I had a rethink and made the best decision ever, to switch courses from Applied Sciences to Exercise and Sport Science (still did science in case I still wanted to do surgery). And what better school to learn about sports then the school @jumpman23 went to!
”I then went to @ucf.edu and graduated a Masters in Business Admin and Masters in Sport Biz Mgmt. While in school, I worked with @turnersportspr and @orlandomagic. After graduation, I worked for a marketing agency on the @gatorade youth experiential account. Then somehow I came to Nigeria to complete my Youth Service. Ended up serving in a sports and entertainment company in ‘Lere. That was an experience, such an experience that made me run out of the country a week after POP 🤣
”But something kept telling me I didn’t “complete my mission” so somehow I came back to be Head of Operations of the African/Continental Basketball League, first private basketball league in Africa. While there, a sports apparel company was launched as well. Then I decided it was my time to make greater impact in the world, and I chose to go on a reality show 😭🤣🤣 Few days ago, I joined a webinar hosted by the Ministry of Youth and Sports (I ‘saw’ @drsid and @soweesy78 there too 💪🏾). Can’t wait until the day that all Nigerians would be proud of its sports industry. That’s the day our patriotism will be known around the world 🏆”
