We had the good fortune of connecting with Michael Kelly and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Michael, what do you attribute your success to?
The most successful factor behind my success is keeping God first. God has gifted me to do what I do, so I go to Him so he can lead and guide me on when to do what I do, and how to do what I do, because He is the “why” I do what I do!
Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I am a basketball coach/trainer. I train basketball players and build their character on and off the court
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I am a home body. I love just being in the house with the wife, and the family watching movies and playing games, but if I had to plan a day, I will say Grandscape and the Deep Ellum area, also taking them to Texas de Brazil (all you can eat) or Texas Roadhouse (where the best rolls are at)
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
As we grow each and everyday, there are many people who impact our lives. Anyone you come in contact with, you can learn and grow. Whether they treat you good or bad. I can’t really narrow it down, but I love to give a shout out to my Wife for supporting me and keeping it real with me. Also my mentor Coach William’s and my Pastor, Pastor Conway Edwards. I thank God for their wisdom and father figure. Keeping me on track when I tend to drift off! Lastly my brother Josh. The example he has set for me to be the best I can be no matter what, still sticks with me til this day!
