Darryll played defensive end at Central Michigan University from 2008-2011 where he supported his team as they won a MAC championship and became a 23rd nationally ranked team. He now holds a Bachelor's degree in Integrative Public Relations and has continued his studies under industry game changers such as Les Brown, Grant Baldwin, and John C. Maxwell. Darryll founded Second Chance Athletes, a holistic athletic transition company, in 2017 to give athletes a second chance to succeed in life without the demands of sports.

Darryll has mentored and taught entrepreneurs, business and religious leaders, athletes, youth groups, and many more how to curate their individual leadership style, find their authentic voice, and develop a foundation of solid mental health habits to overcome adversity and live a life of productivity, passion, and purpose.
