From a young age, I was raised to work hard and value family. Growing up with a family full of entrepreneurs, I was always asked whether or not I would take over one of the family businesses.

My answer always remained the same; “No, I want to build something of my own”.

I never knew what that something would be until I hit middle school. That was when I started to notice what being a sports agent was. Negotiating contracts, handling player marketing, and helping athletes succeed. 

That was when I knew what I wanted to do.

Throughout High School I continued to study what the life of a Player Agent was. Creating business plans, working in internships, networking, etc. I wanted to be more prepared than anyone else.

That was when I heard about Joshua Grady and Grady Sports Agency. Joshua was hosting an eight week Agent Academy teaching students what it took to become an Athlete Agent.

In those eight weeks, Joshua gave me the best advice I have received; “start a podcast!”

I took Joshua’s advice and ran with it. I created a logo, scheduled my first guest, and started The JKR Podcast.

While starting the podcast, I noticed Joshua was absolutely right. The podcast allows me to create relationships with players, agents, and entrepreneurs, establish an online footprint, and build a brand that can one day be seen around the World.

I believe the JKR Podcast is the initial step to becoming a successful MLBPA Certified Agent within the next few years.
