Sincere thanks to @VML_global for producing a video to celebrate the bystanders who utilized their CPR training to save my life and encourage others to become trained — and feel confident to use it should the need arise. I’m living proof CPR works! #AHA2024#HeartBall#WeAreVML
I’m a huge fan of great business. And an even bigger fan of the @Chiefs. @FastCompany gave me a great forum to talk about the connection between the two with key examples from @VML_global. #WeAreVML#Chiefs#SuperBowlLVIII
