Cydney Dodson is a social media publisher at Dapper Labs’ NBA Top Shot, a blockchain-based platform that allows fans to buy, sell and trade numbered versions of specific, officially-licensed video highlights. In her role at Top Shot, Cydney creates content intended to promote and celebrate new NFTs as they become available in the marketplace. She is a passionate supporter of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the workplace, and a proponent of bringing a greater awareness to mental health for athletes.

In this episode, Cydney and I dig into NFTs, what they are… how you get them… and what the NBA marketplace looks like right now. It might surprise you that some of these digital assets sell for tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. We talk about her passion for DE&I, her growing appetite for travel, and how, when you push yourself outside your comfort zone, you are rewarded with confidence. Her advice for women passionate about a purpose? Keep taking the small steps toward making an impact.
