It's been my greatest professional honor to be a Founder, Co-Chairman and Alternate Governor of Phoenix Rising Football Club. I could not be more excited to pass the baton to Tim Riester, as I now shift my attention to the launch of professional soccer in Rhode Island through Fortuitous Partners at Tidewater Landing.
