Chris Haynes loves ball. After hooping in college, he was on a mission to make the NBA his life's work. His story includes traveling and working for free to get his foot in the door while holding down another job to pay the bills. A path that's relatable.

Early on he noticed a few things that needed to change. He approached players a different way. He wrote the story while building his writing skills. And he made connections with people around the building that gave him insights he wouldn't have had.

His story is one of perseverance and drive. One that took him from beat reporter, to NBA Insider on National TV. 

With a love for Basketball and content, imagine packing up all your stuff to move to LA looking for a new scene without a job. That's how Jineen's journey began before she got the opportunity to capture content for the late great Kobe Bryant.

Patience and timing, two words we don’t like to live by when planning out our careers. Those words define Cameron Hicks, Social Content Producer for the Jacksonville Jaguars. 

Learning how to be in the right place at the right time takes some trial and error, and sometimes you have to rebel. Cameron details his journey from spotlighting his brothers play and competing with his mom when it comes to capturing moments.

Life's unexpected turns can lead us to our true calling. Taylor is the Director of Video Production at the University of Virginia.

When two ACL tears altered her athletic career path, she found inspiration in an unlikely place...a Documentary. That moment sparked a creative awakening that would ultimately shape her career, turning setbacks into success.
