“For the past two decades, I’ve mostly worked behind the scenes and kept a low profile. However, after several conversations with Gary Vee, AJ and Greg, it was apparent our synergies aligned. There was great mutual interest in helping VaynerSports trailblaze the path forward for VaynerBasketball and adding to the overall success that the agency has experienced throughout the years. I’m excited and look forward to the challenge.”
