— From UMD Football to Locker Room Innovator

LockedInHQ isn’t just an app; it’s your digital advantage. Built by athletes, for athletes, it gives you the tools to own your brand, grow your presence, and monetize your grind. Whether you’re a D1 standoI’m the founder of LockedInHQ, a lifestyle brand and athlete platform built for those who grind differently. I currently have the opportunity to work with Maryland Football as a Player Personnel and Operations Intern, where I saw just how much work goes on behind the scenes, not just from coaches and staff, but from the athletes themselves.

I realized something big: Athletes are some of the hardest workers in the world, but they don’t always have the platform to prove it. Platforms like LinkedIn weren’t built for us. “I saw athletes with talent, discipline, and drivebut without the resources to grow beyond the game. That’s where LockedInHQ comes in.”ut, walk-on warrior, or rising high school star; LockedInHQ is how you level up.

Highlight tapes don’t show leadership, consistency, or character. And most merch out there doesn’t represent the mindset we carry. That’s why I created LockedInHQ—for the underdogs, the walk-ons, the captains, and the creators. For the ones who stay focused, keep quiet, and let the work speak. For the ones who don’t just play the game—but live the lifestyle. LockedInHQ is more than just a brand.
It’s a movement. It’s an athlete ecosystem. It’s the start of something that finally puts athletes in control of their own identity, brand, and opportunities. Thanks for being here. You’re not just buying a product. You’re joining a culture.

Our Vision for the Future

Our Vision for the Future

Athlete-Led. Faith-Driven. Legacy-Focused.

Athlete-Led. Faith-Driven. Legacy-Focused.

At LockedInHQ, our vision is more than a slogan—it’s a standard. We believe the future of athlete empowerment starts from within the locker room, not the boardroom. That’s why everything we build is grounded in lived experience, guided by purpose, and focused on long-term impact.


Our core principles—Athlete-Led, Faith-Driven, and Legacy-Focused—define not only what we stand for, but where we’re going. This section breaks down how each of these values shapes the heart of our mission.
