Kerrie Patterson-Brown
Founder
As a former player and women's basketball coach for Texas A&M University I learned that student athletes are not special they are just different. As a wife of a former professional athlete I learned that the business within athletics is complex and if one is not knowledgeable of the industry they can easily loose their identity and rely heavily on the sport to define their existence. As a mother of two student athletes I realized that my children, even though the are plenty talented, should understand the professions within the athletic industry. So when their career as a player ends they are prepared to pursue in a career within the industry that they love.
