Dominique Wright on Her Optimistic Journey from the Navy, to the NFL, to NIL
Dominique Wright describes a childhood of “humble beginnings,” complete with a series of forced moves and an eviction. But she says that the positive mindset instilled by her mom helped her persevere through these tough early years to graduate from the US Naval Academy and serve as an officer, earn a law degree, and work at the NFL Players Association and the league’s business and legal affairs department. Today, Dominique is the founder and CEO of a technology marketing startup, serving college athletes pursuing name, image, and likeness opportunities. She describes her current work as the toughest she’s ever done, but says that her optimistic outlook and grit will get her through.
