Livvy Dunne may have retired her leotard and moved on from LSU gymnastics, but she’s still a force on social media and in the NIL world, helping young athletes navigate the wild world of the Name, Image, and Likeness era.
One student-athlete who Livvy is eager to take under her wing is Kai Trump, the incoming University of Miami freshman golfer and eldest granddaughter of President Donald Trump.
Kai recently announced a new NIL deal with the energy drink brand Accelerator, which Livvy is very familiar with — even having her own Cotton Candy flavor — and shared a cheeky announcement on social media from behind a lectern in the style of a campaign ad.
