Whether serving in the field or on the stage, he is the true embodiment of discipline, resilience, and leadership. Martinez empowers audiences to achieve success that can only come through hard work, quality decisions, good faith, and strong character. Because he understands the power of positive community and authentic storytelling, he fervidly shares his journey of overcoming self-sabotage, facing adversity, and choosing a better life and future despite the odds.

Martinez grew up in Chambers County, Alabama where his first dream in life was to go to the NFL. Distracted by negative influences, Martinez took his eye off the prize and gave up on organized sports between middle school and high school.

Martinez soon turned to the streets to get everything he once got from the game - connection, acceptance, and competition. In a moment of reflection, he found himself at an impasse deciding to turn his life around before it was too late. Today, his powerful testimony has impacted thousands.

Martinez's immense passion and dedication to his work lends to his continued success in helping others propel themselves to the next level. And while the impact is most fulfilling, he admits that his greatest joy is found in being a father.
