After winning two Rosebowls and a tie for a third, Walter found himself in freefall from the top of his football career, crash landing into homelessness and unmanaged addictions. After conquering all the mental health challenges that led him to his rock bottom, Walter has made it his life's purpose to help athletes and their support networks find the resources to navigate the many barriers they face managing mental wellness.
Walter has been working in the behavioral health field for nine years and has worked as a Peer Counselor at the Central City Concern/IMANI Center Clinic in Portland, Oregon for five years. He is the founder and CEO of Dynamic Athlete Solutions, founded in 2020. Dynamic Athlete Solutions is focused on delivering culturally responsive mental health and substance use to support student-athletes of color.
