Born a 'Manager' - evolved into a global investor, exec & corporate board director. A multi-skilled C-Suite strategist for brands, etc. Tweets are my views.

@therealknelson @GeorgetownHoops Absolutely - an appropriate honor as #JohnRThompson was an educator 🎓of life as well as 🏀 . Will never forget his presence both on the court as well as in the #Nike boardroom where I had to present strategy. We had a DC connection and he was dually firm and encouraging! 🙏🏾👏🏾

Had I known that the #DemocraticRepublicCongo team planned to roll into the #FIFA #WorldCup rocking the smooth leopard 🐆 print, I may have also met them in #Houston wearing my #Madiba presidential shirt acquired in #SouthAfrica #WorldCupFashion ..@africanize_ 👏🏾😂⚽️

Happy Heavenly 🎂 Champ @MuhammadAli! Congrats and Happy @USPS mailing to the rest of us! 🙏🏾@AliCenter @gotolouisville @ShoePalace

Congrats to all the deserving Inductees and musical influencers being honored in #LA tonight by the @RockHall. Also streaming on @disneyplus! Although not there tonight in person, it is one of those signature-level events that indelibly remains in the memory bank! 👏🏾🎶👏🏾🎶

A well deserved honor for @jasonljenkins. #NFL #FinsUp #SportsPR

An appropriate day for this reminder from #votethespectrum! Delighted to join so many leaders/influencers in this effort to ensure greater voting participation especially among the neurodiverse community!

#RIP @QuincyDJones #GodBless & Extending #condolences to his family... 🙏🏾🕊️🎼🎺

Didn't attempt to walk into a gov't building to chair a board mtg w/ a skeleton mask – so I took earlier📸. However, even while evaluating millions of $s in investments alongside my peer directors for emerging #Arizona bizs to create jobs, we managed fun + #mms #HappyHalloween

A few reminisces during #TrumpTrialRecap jury deliberations; also, supporting the growing, reasoned advocacy for cameras in the courtroom by #NY #AG #LeticiaJames & other jurisdictions. 🙏🏾📺⚖️ @rikkijklieman @CourtTV @jaketapper @nationalbar @NABJ @StevenBrill @BenCrumpLaw

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

#RIP #BillWalton...more than an #HOF #NBAChampion an advocate for greater humanity and fully living life. Condolences to his family. A few thoughts...

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

@jaketapper Thanks Jake. 🙏🏾 Indeed- ultimate sacrifice. Arizona renamed a popular hiking trail/mountain #PiestewaPeak after her. She represents a longstanding tradition of #NativeAmerican service to the nation. #MemorialDayWeekend

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

@CBSSports #JimNantz delicately handled sad @PGATOUR news re: passing of #GraysonMurray. Condolences to his family – reportedly declined offer
to🛑competition amid tragedy. I’ve had clients in those clubhouses - fierce competitors yet also human beings. #SunDevil loss too🙏🏾🔱

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

Always commemorate #FreedomDay in #SouthAfrica each April 27th. Amazing it has been 30 years since many of us were in #SouthAfrica standing alongside colleagues, friends & adopted countrymen/women pursuing democracy. 👀 at the long lines! #democracy #Voting #NelsonMandela.🙏🏾

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

Congratulations @ReggieBush regarding the reinstatement of your @HeismanTrophy! A great privilege to be in attendance that evening - I never removed this picture from my keepsakes anticipating this day would perhaps eventually arrive. 👏🏽👏🏽🏈🏆

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

If you believe in fundamentals such as clean air, clear water for drinking/recreation as well as protecting lands & #nationalparks, the #Udall record of #environmental stewardship is laudable.

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

Happy #EarthDay2024! We’re facing many 🌍 challenges - need the will to confront such issues. Proud of our team for this #Udall documentary (I serve as an #executiveproducer) highlighting a time of🌍 #bipartisanship. @JohndeGraaf @BillWeirCNN @DNC @GOP https://t.co/YAQr9wpYgy

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

Still catching up from #finalfour & biz meetings; however, I will seek time to reflect on our #PT @CourtTV strategy team that successfully preserved cameras in courtrooms following efforts to remove such "sunshine". This would have disadvantaged defendants & diluted⚖️.

[Vada O. Manager @VadaManager]

Fantastic @NPR interviewee @thenation @EdgeofSports Dave Zirin regarding #ojsimpson passing/legacy (& we must never forget the brutal Brown/Goldman murders). Looking forward to commentary from @NPR host/author/friend @NPRMichel & others. https://t.co/PqCi6BzCy5
