BATON ROUGE, Louisiana — Tech veteran Gordan Redzic and First Point Volleyball Foundation founder Wade Garard have joined forces with Lee Feinswog to become equity partners in VolleybalMag.com (Volleyball Magazine), which will result in expanded coverage of the best sport on the planet.
Redzic brings both a professional background in technology and a history of volleyball to his role as VolleyballMag.com’s Chairman & President. Redzic currently serves as CTO of CareScout, a division of Genworth. Previously, Redzic had been CTO of Onbe and a VP of Technology at SleepNumber.
Redzic is an alumnus of Loyola Chicago and Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management, and the son of a former Serbian professional volleyball player. Redzic, who lives in Chicago, actively plays volleyball and coaches for Energy Volleyball Club’s Forza program, where his two sons play. Redzic also coaches freshmen boys volleyball at Maine South High School.
