On this episode of Alumni Direct's show "ATHLETES TO ENTREPRENEURS: The Alumni Journey," we talk to James Taylor, former basketball player at Lynn University, multi-passionate entrepreneur, and founder of Taylored Athletes & Fifth Quarter Ventures.
James tells us about growing up playing sports, the importance of setting specific goals, his thoughts about NIL, and his advice for current student-athletes.
"I just know that when it comes to basketball, any time I stepped on the court, I loved having the ball in my hands...However, I really enjoyed that emotion, that feeling when that ball went through the hoop and it left my hands."
James Taylor's advice for athletes:
"Be very very open, and very honest about exactly where you are. But you also have to be open about where you want to go."
