HINES WARD
Superbowl MVP & Smiley Guy
Hines Ward is a retired South Korean-born American NFL football wide receiver who played 14 seasons for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He played college football at the University of Georgia. The Steelers selected him in the third round of the 1998 NFL Draft, and he became the team’s all-time leader in receptions, receiving yardage and touchdown receptions. Ward was voted MVP of Super Bowl XL, and upon retirement was one of only thirteen NFL players to have 1,000 or more career receptions.
Born in Seoul, South Korea to a Korean mother and an African American father, Ward grew up in the Atlanta area. He has become an advocate for the social acceptance of foreigners in Korea, especially mixed-race youth.
Aside from his career in the NFL, Ward has appeared in various forms of television and film media, including winning the reality TV series Dancing With The Stars, and brief cameos in the 2012 film The Dark Knight Rises and in the television series, The Walking Dead. He has competed in an Ironman Triathlon, and lives in the Atlanta Georgia area with his wife Lindsey, and son Jaden.

MICHAEL O’NEAL
Podcaster & Renaissance Man
Born in Toledo Ohio, and a current resident of San Diego (via Philly, Boulder, Denver, and Brussels), Michael O’Neal’s grammar school report cards always read: “Doesn’t live up to his potential” and “Talks too much.” One of those pieces of feedback would come in handy, as he is now the founder and host of the award-winning and much acclaimed business and entertainment podcast, “The Solopreneur Hour”.
The show, having garnered millions of downloads, features lively and highly engaging conversations between Michael and his various (and often much sought-after) guests, who share remarkable stories, advice and practical tips, for an audience that badges itself as “proudly unemployable”.
With an extensive professional background and formal education in social media, branding, web and print design, network marketing, and internet marketing, Michael’s own personal journey that led to the launch of his show started with the untimely and back-to-back loss of his parents, a transformational trip throughout Europe as part of his grieving process, and the creation and production of another high-profile podcast focused on personal transformation called “The KickAss Life” as well as Solohour.
Steelers fan, Professional drummer, car racer, competitive racquetball player, and former expert mountain bike racer with a penchant for stand up comedy, Michael likes great conversation, and digging behind the scenes to find the real dirt.
