Personal development is the result of relentless, long-term, quality performance.
Preparation, effort and a growth mindset are all needed to achieve
greatness in your craft.
All three require support and nurturing.

Kaizen was founded by Michael and Brian O’Rafferty in 2012 with the goal of providing representation
that keeps the athlete at the center of every aspect of the relationship.
Since its inception, Kaizen has developed into one of the most trusted, player-focused, boutique agencies in the west.
We go beyond standard player-agent expectations.
The agency relationship is valued and protected as an irreplaceable part of the athlete’s life.
