Matt Owens and Valcone Barrett, both former student-athletes, recently reflected on their journeys and the unique paths they took to reach their level of success. Coming from different backgrounds, they shared the sacrifices, discipline, and determination required to excel in both academics and sports.
Valcone highlighted how his experiences as an athlete helped shape his work ethic and resilience, which later propelled him to become a successful real estate investor. His efforts are particularly focused on revitalizing underprivileged areas in New York, where his work is making a lasting impact on communities in need. Val's commitment to giving back is also seen in his dedication to the next generation, as he continues to be an invaluable mentor and leader for youth development.
Matt emphasized how Valcone's loyalty and passion stand out, not only in his career but also in the relationships he builds. Val's ability to blend his professional achievements with community service has made him a truly inspiring figure.
