Listen to my podcast

Joshua McDonald, multifacted by nature, exhibits a diversified resume. A graduate of the University of Louisville, McDonald earned his B.S. in Business Management/International Business while playing five years of college football at the institution. As a collegiate football player, he understands the competitive nature associated with setting goals and being relentless in the pursuit of their realizations, a mentality deeply embedded in everything he does.

While matriculating through graduate school en route to an MBA from the University of Illinois, McDonald co-founded a course focused on professional branding and proper positioning of graduates within the job market. His content has been leveraged in his "Building YOU, Inc." platform, a instructive motivational seminar.

With a passion for bringing ideas to life, McDonald ventured more deeply into the entrepreneurship realm, launching projects in content creation, fashion, and education. Currently, McDonald hosts a podcast called "The Travel (Guy)des" that features destinations throughout the world (available on iTunes), and he is also in the process of completing his first book entitled "Handbook for the Handshake", a guide to overcoming the awkward transition from student to professional (Spring 2017).
