Flash back to last Friday at our 2024 YP Unite Summit. We are leaders. We are change makers. We are Young Professionals. We make positive, innovative, and powerful change in our companies, communities, and beyond. Thank you to our friends with Mammoth Creative Group for capturing these moments ??

What. A. Week. I first had the pleasure of assisting and participating in the annual YP Unite Summit last Thursday through Saturday in Louisville. Seeing it come to life with my amazing Young Professionals Association of Louisville (YPAL) team and board was a great experience, filling my cup of hope and growth for the young professional in our city and surrounding areas. Then I traveled west to the fantastic Kansas City to participate in N4A’s Professional Development Institute: Student-Athlete Development Track. I engaged with professionals in the college athletics realm from every level and all walks of life. I learned brilliant ideas and had constructive dialogue around the ever-changing field of college sports. I feel confident in my abilities to elevate in this work and make some major impacts on my students, University, and the world of college athletics. Oh, and PDI 2024 is the best class ever ?? My future is bright, so time to make some magic happen… after some much needed rest, of course ?? #N4APDI2024 #YPAL
