THE GOAL IS TO LIVE WELL FOREVER– NOT JUST FOR THE MOMENT





About Me

I’m Devon Kennard—former NFL linebacker, full-time real estate investor, and author. I spent nearly a decade in the league after being drafted in 2014, but even during my playing days, I knew I wanted to build something bigger off the field.
I’m based in Phoenix and spend most of my time doing one thing well — lending, buying real estate, and building businesses in Arizona. My company, 42 Solutions, is a private lending firm focused on funding great operators and smart real estate deals across the state. Everything I do is built around helping others create passive income, financial freedom, and long-term wealth — and I lead by example through Kennard Capital, my personal investment platform.
What I Do Now:
• I lend to Arizona-based real estate investors
• I invest in real estate and businesses locally
• I teach others how to think and invest like capital allocators

Speaker

I love connecting with audiences through keynotes, panels, and workshops—I speak on topics ranging from financial freedom to private capital strategy — sharing my experience as an NFL vet turned investor, author, and founder of a private lending company in Arizona. My talks are tailored for athletes, business owners, and everyday investors looking to win in money and in mindset.
