Persuaders are leaders and motivators within their organizations. Socially poised and extraverted, they love to make their mark, and won’t shy away from risk. Persuaders will rally the team around projects—confidently making decisions and delegating tasks before they move on to their next project.

Reed lives with his wife Brenna and their dog Benny in Muskegon, MI.  

He is an avid sports fan, especially when it comes to Michigan State and Detroit teams.  Reed also enjoys physical activity himself, specifically playing golf.  Beyond sports, Reed likes spending time with family and friends, experiencing new restaurants, and traveling.

Reed had the honor of attending the 2014 ESPN ESPY Awards while at Central Michigan, as a result of the last play of the bowl game being nominated for Best Play.  Reed still serves as a Contracted Consultant for The Bahamas Bowl working with Complete Sports Management and ESPN Events.
