Pat Brown, MBA, is a former Division I football player who transformed his passion for sports and business into a lifelong mission: empowering athletes to master their financial futures. After playing at the University of Kansas-where he served as a team captain and competed at the highest levels of collegiate athletics-Pat briefly played professionally in the Canadian Football League before shifting his focus to the business world. Motivated by the financial struggles he witnessed among teammates, peers, and even his own family, Pat earned his MBA and dedicated the next two decades to building a career in financial services, wealth advising, and athlete education. Today, he is a respected financial educator, speaker, and advisor who specializes in helping athletes, parents, and organizations understand the real-world financial strategies needed to build, protect, and sustain wealth. Pat is the founder of FinancialLiteracyForNIL.com, FinancialLiteracyForStudentAthletes.com, and FinancialLiteracyForProAthletes.com, platforms designed to provide athletes at every stage with the tools, knowledge, and frameworks needed to thrive financially-on and off the field.

He also works closely with universities, high schools, athletic departments, and community organizations nationwide, delivering workshops, curriculum, and mentorship that empower athletes to think like CEOs of their own careers. Through his books, speaking engagements, and one-on-one mentorship, Pat helps athletes navigate complex topics like budgeting, credit, investing, taxes, contract negotiation, personal branding, and business formation. His approach is simple but powerful: real talk, real education, real results. A husband, father, and lifelong learner, Pat believes that while the game may end, the financial skills, habits, and legacy you build can last forever. He continues to inspire athletes to take ownership of their money, their brand, and their future. Pat can be contacted at info@financialliteracyforproathletes.com or 785-979-9796.
