He began working as a community organizer in 2010, while working with underprivileged youth throughout Oakland. He began volunteering for his son’s football team and noticed there was a lack of genuine caring for the youth within organized sports. He found that their primary goal was just to win games by any means necessary, with no care or concern for the overall development of the child.
This raised a red flag for him which led him to develop a blueprint on how to make a stronger connection between youth sports and academics. Jacob and his co-founder created the East Bay Panthers with a focus on education and not just sports: He wants kids to win in every aspect of their lives! Not only teaching youth how to play football but also giving them a sense of belonging, as well as confidence and self-esteem. The East Bay Panthers are fully committed to providing a safe and positive environment so that our youth can thrive.

She graduated from an Oakland School for the arts where she focused on ballet and contemporary dance. She’s also was involved with cheer during high school career and she cheered for the Legends Allstar cheer team based out of Brentwood, California.

​
Joi believes that by keeping our youth busy with different and positive outlets to express themselves will help them to be better individuals as they grow. It was always a pleasure of hers to give back by working with the youth in her community. Being able to see the smiles on each and every participant’s face makes her work that much more gratifying.
