Jimmy Nguyen is former college football player turned USA Skeleton Development Athlete. Jimmy found competitive sports in high school so it makes his success and achievements all the more impressive. His love of football took him to Endicott College and post graduation, seeking the next competitive challenge a late night watching the Sochi Olympics spurred a dream and a journey that would take him to the Lake Placid Olympic Training Center. Jimmy was the ideal teammate and competitor. As a first generation American he learned a no quit attitude from his parents that helped him rise and train in athletics. He is a guy who lives with convictions that guide how he carries himself. We talk about his "leave it better than you found it" attitude that has moved outside of just the away team locker room and into his life and relationships. He has certainly left my life better than he found it and I'm excited to share this conversation with you. We talk sports, mental health, coaching younger athletes and his family's recent IVF journey. Jimmy has no quit in him and this conversation made me want to do some things differently in my life.
