Tozuda with Andre Reed

Description
Head injuries seemed to follow entrepreneur Jesse Garcia like a bad habit, earning her the nickname “Tozuda”, or “hard head” in Spanish. Playing through a head injury during a softball game left her with post-concussive symptoms that lasted months. That’s why she created a helmet-attaching device that signals when the wearer has been hit hard enough to be checked for a concussion. Marcus saw the game-changing potential of her invention and called up Hall of Fame wide receiver Andre Reed to help Jesse understand how she can break barriers in the boardroom and get organizations interested in her product.
