I am “all things” PowerNIL, including its founder.  I brokered my first NIL deal between an auto dealership and football starter at The Ohio State University in July 2021, but regretfully didn’t jump deeper in the water then; I am now!  I am a transactional attorney and entrepreneur with 30+ years of experience in complex contract negotiations, and NIL consulting, compliance, and marketing. I started PowerNIL with one goal in mind: to be a recognized subject matter expert in this new frontier and to help either side of an NIL deal with education, navigation and negotiation.  PowerNIL is the marriage of my passions for sports, marketing, and contracts.  I proudly hold a law degree from Case Western Reserve University, and a BA/BS in Marketing from Bowling Green State University, with honors. I am a registered Player Agent in Ohio and Tennessee, with additional states pending.
