Live Music and Entertainment from SoundUp
Bailey and Nestle have been best friends and partners since matching together in November of 2023. Bailey has a passion for sports, playing both baseball and football in high school. While coming home from a practice one night, Bailey was involved in a car crash, totaling his truck which resulted in a T4 spinal cord injury. This did not keep Bailey down as he finished out his junior and senior year of high school and recently graduated from Stetson University. “Nestle helps me stay independent and gives me more confidence in life,” says Bailey. Bailey studied sports business and hopes to get a career in the sports industry.
