"As a student athlete and aspiring entrepreneur, I realize the world is rapidly changing-- demanding a balance in business, life & sustainability--- young people need relevant pathways & support to leverage these opportunities."

WELCOME. Since elementary school I've served as an ambassador for the AddyPres Organization-- helping activate initiatives related to education and sustainability. I've met community and business leaders, trialed curriculum, worked with little kids and offered feedback on committees. I've also had a significant role in providing lived experience and survey feedback for the AP Future Careers smart tech system.

This page provides some helpful information from past and present initiatives that I've helped the organization activate or are working to activate now--- primarily focused on food, fashion, career development & education. I invite you to explore my page to learn, share & activate what is cool to you.

Like me, athletes visiting the page can bring community value to your NIL partnerships utilizing the information, tools & ideas below! Questions? Need support?  contact@addypres.org

A really important initiative I'm participating in as an AP Ambassador, is the organization's Future Careers initiative. If you're an athlete or creative, I'm sure you're aware of the juggle it takes to manage life, family, school, community service, immediate opportunities and career aspirations... it can be a lot.

Imagine having a clear pathway to support your wellness and ability to harness your immediate opportunities (like access to legal & talent representation & financial literacy), while you continue to grow new skills (through relevant health & wellness support, athletic development & learning pathways) for whatever comes next-- securing your long term prosperity along the way...

AP's founders and partners HAVE imagined this pathway... and over the last 5 years, have been diligently working to grow a new ecosystem around the unique needs of talented, creative & athletic individuals.

As a person within this landscape, also interested in becoming an entrepreneur, I really appreciate the work of this initiative-- which has already had so much positive influence across today's career development, athletic, entertainment & health sectors---promoting a revolutionary approach to education & career development, with the mission to help individuals DISCOVER, UNLOCK & CHASE passions while SECURING futures.

Name, Image, Likeness opportunities are providing today's athletes with more ways to harness financial incentives that can benefit their immediate and long term prosperity-- and contribute to meaningful impacts in communities. By connecting & creating partnerships with brands and company's who value making these positive contributions, you can bring impact to your NIL partnerships and social media.

I worked with the AddyPres Organization to learn more about the circular economy and its potential to improve the fashion, food & fiber industries. HERE ARE insights, tools & ideas you can use to create an impactful NIL partnership opportunity:

LEARN: Our TAKE-MAKE-TOSS way of doing things is reaching its limit. A circular economic model offers ideas that value regenerating natural ecosystems, designing out waste & pollution and keeping products and materials in use longer. WHAT IS THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY? Visit the Ellen Macarthur Foundation to learn more. I recommend this page: Fashion & the Circular Economy Deep Dive

Bring value to your partner pitch with the opportunity to connect educators to a FREE APYS Campus Reuse Shop directive-- a tool for them to launch a REUSE SHOP on their campus- inspired by Patagonia's Worn Wear line, which I learned about when I visited the corp offices a while back. This FREE EDUCATORS TOOL guides 6th-12th grade student's to explore & participate in the circular economy AND generates dollars for their school's ATHLETIC & CREATIVE programs! Learn more about Worn Wear:

*If you decide to layer up your NIL utilizing this opportunity, educators can gain access to a FREE DOWNLOAD of the AP Campus Reuse SHOP Directive with support to activate it on their gr. 6-12 campus, supported by the NIL partnership you establish. Contact vanessac@addypres.org with interest.

Learn more about some of the brands who share values for people and planet as signatories of the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action.

Every athlete knows that nutrition & mind/body wellness are essential for performance & longevity. The food we eat impacts everything from stamina, physicality, recovery, injury prevention & management to our cognitive function, mental health and quality of sleep.

That's why we should care about the trickle down effect of our food system as something that matters... a lot.

I've been introduced to regenerative organic agriculture and the value of creating a diet around locally sourced foods--- which might inspire some thought around your own nutrition & wellness and can impact ideas around the NIL partnerships you create.

DID YOU KNOW? WHAT YOU EAT, HOW IT WAS GROWN OR PRODUCED & WHERE YOU BUY IT impacts people & planet? Regenerative Organic practices have the potential to sequester 100% of carbon emissions into the soil, where it can be used naturally by healthy plants & crops to regenerate soil, filter green house gases, and value the people and animals in our agriculture sector! Learn more about the opportunities in food & fiber through regenerative agriculture on the following link. (click the image).

Bring value to your NIL partner pitch with the opportunity to connect educators to the following resources, helping them inspire soil stewardship in their K-5th students. You can provide these educator tools with support from an NIL partnership you create & share. Be sure to tag @AddyPresLFStyle and #AddyPresInspires
