If Brady Kneeled

Tom Brady

Tom Brady is the greatest quarterback of all time. As a player, his individual stats and team achievements have placed him in talks of the best football player ever! Watching his career and journey in the NFL is impressive. He was barely drafted and only got the opportunity to become a starter when Drew Bledsoe went […]

Because They Believe

because they believe

Growing up in a religious household, I’ve watched my father ascend from the congregation to decon, a pastor, and now a bishop. The power of belief is undeniable, and even just sharing this business story is a miracle.

Tradeshows are rich in tradition, predictable yet exciting, and fun. If you’ve been to a tradeshow in repeat years, you know it’s almost like a high school reunion.
