Message from Myles

My name is Myles Wright, and I am from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I am currently a graduate student studying to get my MBA at Florida Institute of Technology. I have been in sports my entire life playing football, basketball, and running track. I was blessed to receive an academic and athletic scholarship to play football in college. Sports have helped me become the man I am today by teaching me many life lessons such as resilience when I tore my labrum and had to have surgery.

I was a former member of the university’s football team up until the program was cut following the pandemic. This became a very tough time in my life as the decision came without warning and a game that I played since I was four years old was suddenly taken away. To make matters worse, I was also informed that I was no longer being awarded my athletic scholarship for the MBA program I had already begun and being that my academic scholarship was for undergraduate only, I am not completely responsible for funding my MBA.

I want thank Lineups and their team for awarding me this scholarship to help me complete my goal of finishing my MBA as it is a prerequisite to my goal of becoming a sports agent. This will help lower the overall cost for me and my family. I am also currently working at Orangetheory Fitness as a sales ambassador and soon to be fitness coach as I just got my personal trainer certification to help pay for my school and living expenses. I am extremely grateful for this award and for the ability to continue my education.
