My background is in both marketing, I hold a BBA in Marketing from Texas A&M University - Mays Business School, and law, I am licensed to practice law and went to Texas A&M University School of Law. I consider myself a multipotentialite because I not only have a degree in marketing and a law license, but I was a competitive gymnast, a writer, an actress with an acting agent for 15 years, and more. A multipotentialite is someone who doesn't have one true calling like specialists do. We have the ability to be successful in multiple industries sometimes simultaneously.
Through my podcast I want to help you realize Your Potential for Everything and learn from my guests about how they have managed to lead lives in multiple careers and never had to settle for having one answer to the question, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

In this episode of Your Potential for Everything, host Alex brings on Arda Öcal, the voice of the NHL Gaming World Championships. Arda talks about his journey into the world of Gaming & Esports and his time at the WWE.
We discuss his unique entry into broadcasting through the WWE and how he got to use his love of Gaming & Esports at ESPN. Arda has been a “first” in many spaces and has used his background as the son of immigrant Muslim parents from Turkey as a way to show others that they belong in this space too.
In order to get into the world of broadcasting, he was required by the WWE to change his name and work with a dialect coach. Arda understands that his uniqueness is what makes him special and he doesn’t want to blend into the crowd. He is making waves in the Gaming & Esports industry and hopes to inspires others to do the same.
