Mr. Mashburn’s experience in sports and media is instrumental in the concept of this dynamic, and integrated multimedia site. His site presents information about his career in the NBA, his philanthropy endeavors, his business projects and literary works. In addition, Mr. Mashburn’s online presence is now boosted with a podcast. Audio and video content is available on iTunes. Users can also view and

Mr. Moss, a consultant to Jamal Mashburn, provided a lot of direction to MQube, the web development company behind Mr. Mashburn’s site. He said, “Mr. Mashburn has the opportunity to affect change through his ideology of family empowerment, and community development. Thus, the mission moving forward was effectively getting the message out, and creating over time a web presence that could lead to accessible change for those choosing to engage.” Mr. Mashburn agreed, “The business of affective and effective change is the business of providing information. The website assists me in doing exactly that. Community development, and family empowerment aren’t simple executions. This is about quality of life, and in some cases saving lives, so we’re creating a place where people will be able to find that assistance”.

About Jamal Mashburn
A premier NBA player for many years, Mashburn epitomizes the realization that being a player, while an important aspect of his development, is never a mandate for long-term success or development. “Purpose,” adds Jamal “is an exercise in discipline, and vision as it applies to overall character development or lack thereof in come cases.”
