Richard Converse – Team Market Owner
Hello everyone!
I’m excited to introduce myself as co-TMO of the TBL Cincinnati Warriors. I’ve had a passion for basketball dating back to the times my father would take me to the Cincinnati Royals games at the Gardens. Ever since those days, I’ve developed into a basketball superfan. With this franchise, and the guidance of an experienced staff, we want to bring quality professional basketball back to the Queen City. This franchise marks the culmination of that goal.
Professionally, I currently hold an M.S. in Biological Sciences from the University of Cincinnati and have over 30 years of research experience as a Molecular Biologist. I began teaching as an adjunct instructor with Cincinnati State in 2004. I am now retired (but still working) as an adjunct instructor with Sinclair CC, Clark State CC, ATA College, NKU, and IVY Tech.
My interests include: gene regulation, evolution, human development, molecular genetics, biochemistry, anatomy and physiology, teaching, and, of course, BASKETBALL!
I’m thrilled to help bring quality pro basketball back to Cincinnati!
See you at the game!
Richard Converse, TMO Cincinnati Warriors–
