Born in San Diego, CA in 1993, Solomon Simmons was the quintessential “student-athlete” earning his bachelor’s degree and MBA in finance within the 5-year eligibility of his full-ride athletic scholarship. However, his accomplishments extend far beyond the classroom. As the Track & Field Team Captain and star decathlete for Eastern Michigan University, Solomon won the Mid-American Conference Championship 4 times and set the Conference Championship Meet Record. He is a 3 time NCAA All-American, 6 time NCAA Academic All-American (3-years Indoor & Outdoor season), and became one of only 81 people in US history to score 8,000+ points. He concluded the 2019 season by competing in the Track & Field World Championships in Doha, Qatar finishing as the #1 U.S. Decathlete and #8 in the World.

Since graduating college with his MBA in 2017, Solomon has continued to compete professionally and is a shoo-in to represent the USA at the 2021 Olympics in Tokyo.
