Meet Da’Keas Wright

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Da’Keas Wright . We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Da’Keas below.

Da’Keas , we’re thrilled to have you on our platform and we think there is so much folks can learn from you and your story. Something that matters deeply to us is living a life and leading a career filled with purpose and so let’s start by chatting about how you found your purpose.
Finding my purpose was truly finding something I enjoyed without any financial benefits. Becoming a professional basketball trainer/ teacher, I have been able to help the next generation players achieve their goals.

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
Well for the last 10 years I’ve been able to successfully engage myself with a great network of basketball extraordinary’s. From NBA coach’s, trainers, influencers etc. My next steps is to continue to build my program and branch into the travel basketball market. I want this platform to give kids/ players the opportunity to showcase their talents not only in front of college coach’s but on our platform and partnership companies we will be backed by.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
3 qualities that I used to get to where I am.

1. Patience, this tool was very key be patient!
2. Positive, always see the glass half full!
3. Determined, it won’t be easy but you can’t stop when adversity hits.

To close, maybe we can chat about your parents and what they did that was particularly impactful for you?
The most impactful thing my parents did for me, was creating an AAU team for me. Giving me the opportunity to play my game and have the experience of traveling.
