David Holloway Biography
Former American football linebacker David Holloway has spent his post-athletic career traversing the globe. As a sought-after speaker, he has traveled extensively, sharing his experiences and insights from his time on the field to inspire many Fortune 500 companies. Holloway's narratives and strategies focus on achieving the seemingly impossible.
In addition to his speaking engagements, Holloway is an executive coach and trainer. He offers his expert insights to numerous billion-dollar companies, coaching CEOs and teams on improving their strategies, maximizing their talent, and reinventing their organizations.
Holloway is a 2002 graduate of The Albany Academy in Albany, New York. Following his academic pursuits, he played college football at Maryland before having an exciting career in the NFL. His journey in the league began when he was signed by the Arizona Cardinals as an undrafted free agent in 2007. Throughout his career, he also played for the Washington Commanders, Cleveland Browns, and Jacksonville Jaguars.
Today, Holloway shares his best practices with leaders who are committed to an extraordinary future. His clients have included renowned companies such as PepsiCo, Xerox, Century 21, and Under Armour, among others. Beyond being a speaker and trainer, Holloway founded Inside The Holloway Huddle, a masterclass curriculum offering expert strategies on peak performance, overcoming adversity, personal development, and sustaining resiliency in a competitive landscape.
His credibility and proven results extend beyond his personal achievements. His father, Brian Holloway, was the captain of the '85 New England Patriots Super Bowl XX team, while his maternal grandfather, 'Pie' McKenzie, won the '70 & '72 Stanley Cups as part of the 'Big Bad' Boston Bruins. This legacy of leadership and success is a testament to the values Holloway holds and shares with his audiences.
Holloway also supports Project Linus by donating a portion of his speaking proceeds to help the cause. Project Linus provides handmade blankets to children in the US who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need, a mission that aligns with Holloway's commitment to giving back to the community.
