Taylor Mack, better known as Tmack, is a former D-1 football player and current tech salesman and entrepreneur based out of Boston. Taylor is one of Drew’s oldest friends, going back over 20 years to when he first arrived at Lovett, their primary and secondary school (lower/middle/high-school).
Taylor shares with us his story of being black while attending a mostly white private school during the formative years of his life. During his Lovett days, Taylor was most well-known for his outgoing (and goofy) personality as well as his athletic talent.
These days, Taylor maintains his goofy side while also pairing it with his more sophisticated side that is able to think and articulate through some of our biggest, modern cultural challenges. Tmack shows us both sides in this episode while providing us all with deeply meaningful and important concepts to contemplate.

A movement that started in 2020 around the pandemic and George Floyd murder time led by African American students that attended The Lovett School (in Atlanta, GA USA) where many were sharing about challenges they experienced being a person of color. All in hopes of inspiring change.
