About Sean

I didn’t accomplish my first, second, third, fourth, fifth or sixth goals as a kid, but I did get into my No. 1 college choice, cover 2 Olympics and 16 NFL seasons, pen six books (and counting) and speak to thousands of sports-loving kids through assemblies, video chats and weekly podcasts.

    "Sean was an absolutely phenomenal presenter and very gracious. We had two speakers visit our school, but Sean's presentation, his personality, and the time he spent here was incredible. One word I've heard a lot of staff and even a couple students use is 'inspiring.'"
