The King of D3 NIL

In July 2021, the NCAA passed legislation that allows collegiate athletes at any level to derive income from their Name, Image, and likeness. NIL has many faces and has completely shifted the landscape of college sports. It’s a warzone at the DI Level, but for DIII individuals such as myself it gives us a chance to feel like people care about what we do on the field, court, or track. NIL has given all athletes–no matter their status–a chance to build a brand for themselves.

The Make Your Own Legacy Academy: A First of Its Kind NIL Education Solution

Founded in July of 2022, The Make Your Own Legacy Academy was formed to meet the needs of the underserved Small-Market athlete. The Academy consists of 33 highly-skilled and unique athletes from every division of NCAA competition.

As the Founder of The MYOL Academy, I oversee and instruct all 33 athletes on several subjects related to NIL such as constructing the perfect cold email, sustaining conversation, negotiations, content creation, and more.

As of February 2022, The academy began hosting ‘Legacy Lessons’–a series of guest speakers who come and talk to our athletes on various topics from networking to financial advice.
