Co-Chair of the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition

Misty May-Treanor was appointed by Donald Trump to serve as a Co-Chair of the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition in 2018. She continued in this role through the end of the administration and was later replaced/reappointed during the Biden administration.

Notes: She served alongside other prominent figures like Mariano Rivera and Herschel Walker.

Agent rationale
