Olanrele Oni (He/Him) was born in Akron Ohio (Go LeBron!) and moved to Nigeria when he was a toddler. At 15 years old, he came back to the United States in 2000 and has lived in the Baltimore area for over 15 years Olanrele has an extensive background in human and social services, assisting low-income Marylanders to receive medical, food, and labor benefits to help families. He earned his BA in Political Science with a minor in Sociology at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). Olanrele has a passion for all things sports because he enjoys the social, physical and mental benefits it can provide. As President and Founder of Unmatched Athlete, Olanrele wants to do his part in changing the toxic narrative that still exists in sports regarding LGBTQ+ people, especially black trans athletes. "We want to be a space where LGBTQ+ youth and allies, regardless of their experience, can enjoy all the benefits sports can offer towards the development of any youth. We also want to be an organization that supports LGBTQ+ student athletes towards taking a path to compete collegiately and professionally across all sports." Naturally, Olanrele is a politics and diplomacy policy-wonk and a lover of all things debate. In his free time, he enjoys playing and watching sports (and could use a tennis lesson from Serena Williams).

By night, he dreams of becoming a bodyweight warrior, and is honored to serve on several non-profit boards across Baltimore; including JPride Baltimore, the Jewish Museum of Maryland, and he recently completed his term on the board of the MissionFit youth gym. Justin is passionate to weave his interests of community development, fitness, and the arts; with being mindful and building family. 💼
