Dontavia's Story
For most of my life, I thought football would be my opportunity out of my small hometown in Georgia, I started playing football at a young age and was inducted into my High School Hall of Fame. I attended the University of South Florida on a full athletic scholarship. During my time at USF, I participated in four Bowl games with three victories. I was highlighted on ESPN's Top 10 plays in 3 out of the 4 years during my time at USF. After my college athletic career, I was undrafted as a wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers. I was also featured on the first season of NFL Undrafted on the NFL network. My professional football career ended shortly after due to an injury.
Following my football career, I helped start an internet marketing company from the ground up, where we specialized in search engine optimization (SEO) and other marketing techniques for business owners. After a few years of working in the Internet marketing field, I transitioned into the freight industry. I started my logistics career at Emerge and hit the ground running. I was determined to prove to myself that I could find success beyond just football.
My first month as a broker I received employee of the month. In the three years I worked at Emerge, I performed 14.7 million in revenue and 3.2 million in gross profit at a 22.1% run rate.
I now find myself in a position that truly fulfills me, helping motivated hungry individuals tap into their fullest potential by facilitating and aligning them with career opportunities that allow them to express their highest and evolved selves.
