#15 Mitch Ford

Mitch Ford is a former NABC All-American basketball player from Nazareth College, the third player in school history to be recognized as such after averaging over 22 points and 11 rebounds per game his senior season. Mitch passed up opportunities to play division 1 football after high school to follow his true passion and love, the sport of basketball. Great conversation about things he picked up about building success along his journey thus far, making himself a better player and person, what he's taken away from some of the best in his sport, and highlighted a lot of ideas that are valuable outside of just basketball. "Appreciating who you are is huge for personal growth... if you really love yourself and are content with what you're doing, who you are and where you want to go, everything is going to get easier."@_mford9_ is currently grinding in pursuit of his dreams of being involved in the NBA and training/coaching (or whatever best opportunity presents itself to get closer)... Mitch currently works as the director of operations for the UB women's basketball team, spent '18-'19 in player development with the Dallas Mavericks, worked in sales for the Hornets, and has done a lot of independent coaching and development with kids along the way. He's always looking to grow his network and connect with new people, so hit him up on Linkedin and say what's up. Great conversation with a greater guy, look forward to seeing what the future brings for Mitch. Connect With Mitch: Email: [email protected] Twitter: @mford41 LinkedIn: Mitch Ford IG: @_mford9_
