What does it take to go from coaching 4th grade football to the sidelines of the NFL in just six years, with absolutely no inside connections?

In this casual, storytelling session, I’ll be sharing the behind-the-scenes journey of how I landed a job with the Miami Dolphins. We'll talk about the unconventional strategies I used to get my foot in the door (like mapping out every NFL coach in a giant spreadsheet, handwriting 450 letters, and driving through the night for a 15-minute meeting).

More importantly, I'll share the lessons in persistence, navigating rejection, and betting on yourself that apply to any career or entrepreneurial path. Whether you’re building a business, chasing a massive goal, or just want to hear some fun stories from the football world, come hang out and learn how to create your own opportunities when the odds are stacked against you.
