Devin Danehy

Devin Danehy's inclusion of such diverse individuals as Mark Twain, David Maraniss, Bill Maher, and George Carlin at the top of a list of favorite authors is indicative of the multifaceted personality of the Pepsi Cola executive and community activist.

Devin Danehy's appreciation for Mark Twain is included in a larger appreciation for history and historical documents. Danehy’s undergraduate degree, in fact, is a Bachelor's degree in Finance and History, and during his freshman year at Indiana University he was named Outstanding History Student; a healthy addition to his already outstanding academic resume.

David Maraniss' "When Pride Still Mattered"€ is one of Devin Danehy's all-time favorite books, and reflects Danehy’s lifelong passion for professional sports. “When Pride Still Mattered” is an account of Vince Lombardi’s transformational journey as coach of the Green Bay Packers, and is a true story of respect, dignity, and honor in leadership. Devin Danehy is an avid sports fan, particularly of the National Football League, so the subject of Maraniss'€™ "When Pride Still Mattered"€ has always sparked Devin Danehy'€™s attention. In addition, Danehy is a leader himself; perhaps not of a nationally ranked football team, but rather in a corporate setting. Devin Danehy's superior business leadership shines: he currently holds the position of Director of Strategy at Pepsi Cola'€™s Orlando, Florida office.

Bill Maher is a political commentator known for his outspoken dialog and satire, and he is also one of Devin Danehy's favorite authors. Devin has always been interested in politics, and even has his own online weblog, through which he voices a few of his political views and ideas. While Devin spends some of his free time blogging, he spends the majority of his leisure time practicing sports, playing the guitar, volunteering, viewing professional sporting matches and games, and, of course, reading.
