The Coaching Staff
Transition Coaches (L to R) Kayla, Jada, & Destiny
Founder & Head Transition Coach
As a proud Arlington, Texas native I’ve been around sports my entire life but I officially stepped into the business of sports in 2010 and haven’t looked back. I went from executing routes with precision to calling routes and creating plays.
During my time in the industry I have listened to how athletes were being talked about, watched how they were being used, then tossed to the side after their playing days ended. Frankly, I did not like what I was seeing. So after identifying the problem, I decided to become the solution. In 2016, the vision for Transition to W.I.N. was born.
After the vision was solidified I dedicated the following years to growth, strategy, perfecting my craft and building the team. Did I mention I did this while successfully serving as the Assistant Director of Career Management and a Career Specialist at two leading universities? You might also be interested to know that I lecture business courses on professional development, decision making, corporate sport sponsorship as well as talent management in sports & entertainment at these universities.
I proudly serve on the executive board for the National Black Sports Professionals North Texas Chapter (BSPNTX) and have overseen staff as a coordinator for nine consecutive NFL Super Bowls.
I am Destiny Price, I nurture plants & people. My approach to coaching is challenge & support. Let my team help you prepare for What is Next!
Transition Coach
I am originally from Columbus, Ohio; I graduated from Ohio University with a Bachelor of Sport Management, Master of Business Administration, and Master of Sport Administration. My time in Athens, Ohio led me to serve as the first black female General Manager of the Southern Ohio Copperheads Baseball team. During my two years as manager, I acquired skills in revenue generation, developing partnership agreements and selling sponsorships in the local community. Furthermore, I served as the Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion chair for Ohio University's Sport Administration Program. Most recently, I worked on the PGA Tour (Fortinet Championship) assisting with client services and hospitality.
Specializing in career management, I have a passion for helping others reach their maximum potential. I have consulted with over 100 clients helping with resume and cover letter creation, interview coaching, as well as helping to secure jobs and internships. With every appointment, it is my goal to instill the confidence of conquering the next step into each individual that crosses my path. Furthermore, I have been in the banking industry for over three years, gaining knowledge on mortgage, auto-loans, and cash management. Taking a 360° approach, I combine my sport, career management, and banking experience to aid others along their personal development journey. The unknown can be quite the mystery but a solid plan can ease the process.
It is my personal mission to enter each day with thanksgiving, securing genuine connections and helping others maximize their potential. I value faith, family, creativity, and health.
I am Kayla Hunter, I make it a habit to keep the creative needs of others top of mind with integrity and grace. My approach to coaching is to observe and empower.

In fact, during my time on campus, I co-founded the Association of Multicultural Sports Professionals. The organization continues to provide professional development opportunities to students that have a passion for the sport industry.
In 2017, I began my journey with the 2021 World Champion Milwaukee Bucks. I started as a Sales Associate and was promoted within nine months to a Senior Account Executive position.
