Success in soccer, business, and investing comes from spotting opportunities early, executing fast, and building winning teams. I bring a rare combination of experiences across elite professional soccer, hedge funds, private equity, and venture-backed sports ventures—giving me a distinct edge at the intersection of athletics, finance, and innovation.

As the founder of White Sports Ventures, I invest in and advise high-growth soccer assets—including youth media platforms, AI tools, mental-strength technologies, and infrastructure projects. My portfolio includes:

• Ownership in an MLS Next Pro team, providing direct insight into club operations and development strategy.
• Investment in media, training, and tech ventures serving the global soccer economy.
• Former hedge fund role at Accra Capital Partners, raising capital and deploying across digital assets and emerging markets.
• Active private equity and VC investor across both sports and technology sectors.

I also bring a firsthand view of today’s player journey through my son, a professional player in Europe and U.S. youth international at age 18.

My career spans top leagues in Serbia, Greece, France, Denmark, Poland, Saudi Arabia, and MLS. As a U.S. Men’s National Team player (2007–2009) and NCAA All-American at Wake Forest, I learned to perform under pressure—lessons I’ve carried into building, scaling, and exiting ventures:

• Founded and exited digital agency Jaysocial LLC.
• First consultant for the Saudi Arabian Olympic Committee initiating the expansion into western markets.
• Recognized as an MLS Greats & Next Legacy Fellow.
• Earned U.S. Soccer B & C Licenses and FIFA Medical Diploma to bridge coaching, performance, and operations.
• Certified in Blockchain, AI, and Fintech to apply emerging tech in sports investment.
