14. William Butterfield
All my life I have been driven through sports
and competition, and now I have a chance to
make an impact on the games I love. Data has
become a huge part of our advances in anything we know, and with how
popular sports have become we now have the funds to make a difference. I
aspire to not only change the game but to change a culture. Numbers are
very important to me, because of the story they tell that the casual fan
wouldn’t know.
