Ellis Wyms played Defensive End in the NFL for 8 seasons, primarily with Tampa Bay where he played with Hall of Famers like Warren Sapp and Derrick Brooks.  In the NFL, Ellis carved a name for himself for his versatility and work ethic, qualities that serve him well as a founder today.

In this episode, Ellis remembers the challenges of growing up in a rural community, how he felt on Draft Day when the Buccaneers called him, what made him fall in love with technology, and on discovering the passion that drove him to launch his educational non-profit: Athletes for Computer Science!
