Boots and Broken Hearts
A/N: A new fic that I have been thinking about, it'll follow Alessia Russo and original character Willa Conti as they navigate their lives at UNC.
Chapter 1:
The right person, but always the wrong time, maybe one day they can get their timing right. Alessia grew up in the South of London, she had two older brothers and a football obsessed Father, Mario. Her weekends were filled with football, either her playing, her brother Gio playing, her father playing for a local side. Alessia had to play with boys up until the age of 12 due to there being no local girls team she could join, but that was the best thing that could have happened to her. Playing with boys had given her a hunger to be better, stronger and faster than the boys to make sure they wouldn’t have anything to say about having a girl on their team. At school she would often be picked first by the boys because they knew exactly how good she was. Her talents had her noticed by the England Development Team, she went to her first camp for the under 14 team at the tender age of 12. There she met her best friend Ella, they were inseparable from the first moment they met. They both featured in elite football academies although for opposing teams, Alessia for Chelsea and Ella for Manchester United, they would play against each other but nothing would change between them off the pitch no matter the result. When it came time for the two to take on professional contracts Ella was offered a full time contract at her junior club, Alessia made the biggest decision of her young life, well the biggest one at that time, she decided to leave everything she knew and went to college in the United States. Alessia made her stamp on the collegiate football world when she made her first start with North Carolina University.
In comparison Willa had a slightly different road to North Carolina. She was raised in Newcastle Upon Tyne in the North East of England. She was chosen at the tender age of 8 to sign her first contract with Sunderland’s Junior Academy. Willa was tagged as an up and comer, he was a 12 year old playing in the under 16 side, and was placed into the England under 17 side by the age of 14. Willa had an outstanding junior career until she was 16, she was playing in the Under 19 European Championships, it was the final, the game she dreamed of. She stood in the opposition’s 18 yard box waiting for the corner to come in. As the ball soared towards her, Willa readied herself. The ball made contact with her head, then she felt a sharp pain to the right side of her face, then darkness. The Spanish Captain had attempted to clear the ball from the box, but instead she had kicked Willa in the face. It resulted in Willa being knocked unconscious, as well as slicing the right cheek, fracturing her cheekbone, eye socket and breaking her jaw. At that moment Willa had scored the winning goal and had her short career ended. She had her jaw wired shut for 2 months, headaches and concussion symptoms for 4 months and multiple surgeries to fix the shattered bones in her face. By the time she was cleared to play again Willa was 17 and without an academy contract. Her final year of high school was frustrating, she was surrounded by her friends from the academies who were on track for professional contracts, while she was playing division 4 women’s. Willa needed to escape from what could have been, so he sat the SATs and was on a plane as soon as she finished school, playing football (now soccer) at University of California, Los Angeles, UCLA. For four years she studied hard for her MBA while also being the star player of the UCLA Bruins Women’s Soccer Team, Captain from her Sophomore year onwards. She had a passion for analytics and would run reports of all stats for coaches each game, she knew she may never make it pro but she could make a difference on the sidelines. In her Senior year she played in the National Championship game and with 8 minutes until the end of the game her knee gave way. She knew exactly what it was, her ACL.
There were three years between Willa and Alessia, she had stared at UCLA and she had now made the decision to step off the field and begin her coaching and analytical career, her knee still gave her trouble after the reconstruction, each time she kicked the ball it felt different and she knew she was done at the tender age of 22. North Carolina was her lifeline and she took it with both hands. Alessia was away on an England Camp when Willa started. Willa had begun working with Anson Dorrance, the coach of North Carolina on their current team list, looking at game footage from both North Carolina and every other team that they were facing. Willa had never watched so much football in her life as she did now. By the time she met the players Willa knew everything that she could about the technical abilities of the players, she noted that Alessia had not arrived yet as she was still at the National Camp. Both she and Anson had begun working on the pre-season preparation for the team. Once August came around Alessia was back at North Carolina and at training. “Willa this is-'' Anson began. “Alessia Russo, 9 goals, 2 assists in your first collegiate season with a conversion rate of 43 percent, well 43.28 percent to be exact. Very impressive.” Willa had a bright smile and held out her hand to shake. Alessia was surprised by the woman in front of her with the Newcastle accent that sounded familiar, she seemed to know more about her than she did. Their blue eyes met as they shook hands. “I��m Willa Conti, pleasure to meet you Alessia.” She smiled and bit her lip gently. “Pleasure to meet you too, Willa. You seem to know a fair bit about football.” Willa laughed and let go of her hand.”Hope so. Might be disappointing if I didn’t.” Anson patted Alessia on the back. “Get on the park and join the team.” Alessia ran to join her teammates who were ecstatic that she was back.
After training Willa was going through the data from each player’s GPS and footage from the session. Her phone rang with a familiar name on the screen, her girlfriend, Jennifer. “Hey babe.” She sat back in her chair and ran her fingers through her long chestnut hair. Jennifer was not pleased at all that Willa had moved all the way to North Carolina away from her in LA, where she had just been recruited into the Orlando Pride Wave NWSL team. “Hi, you haven’t texted me back in hours. Too busy with all those North Carolina girls?” Willa could hear the anger in Jennifer’s voice and sighed knowing what was coming. “I have been running training and doing the analysis ready for this week’s first scrimmage.” Willa was being drained each conversation with Jennifer knowing that it would quickly become a fight. “Of course, well I have a game this weekend and I got you tickets. Are you able to come?” Willa looked up at the schedule on her office wall. “Yeah I should be able to. Will be a good game against Portland.” Jennifer hummed in agreement. “Yeah it will be good to see you, I miss you.”
“I miss you too, I will see you this weekend. Love you.” Willa’s tone was as happy as she could make it.
“Love you too babe.” Jennifer sounded a lot more upbeat than when the call had started. The two had met when they were both on the UCLA football teams, Jennifer was a local LA girl and they seemed to be pushed together instantly. Willa found her comforting but did admit that at times she was so focused on football that she did neglect their relationship, it was lucky that they were on the same team. But Jennifer didn’t seem to mind as long as Willa was at all the parties with her, all the games and on her arm when she needed it. Jennifer was gorgeous and could have easily gone into modelling, she had flowing brown hair that had a slight curl, bright green eyes that matched the trees when they would go hiking around California. Her skin was permanently sunkissed and a rose tattoo graced the side of her forearm. As a couple they complimented each other perfectly, Willa had mid back length chestnut brown hair that was usually in a high pony tail, blue eyes that were like a royal blue, her facial scars were only noticeable in particular light like a lion had scratched down her right hand cheek. Willa’s skin was tanned after being in the LA sun for four years, her Italian background had been particularly beneficial. On her left ribs she had a tattoo of the Newcastle United badge and the UCLA Bruin. The Newcastle badge was important to her, they were her team but they never had an academy, the only one close by who had a girls academy was Sunderland, her natural enemy. Jennifer stood at 5 feet 7 inches and Willa who stood at a comfortable 5 feet 10 inches. The two were the IT couple of UCLA Athletics and he sat next to her when she was drafted to the Orlando Pride Wave, it was everything she wanted and more, Willa opted to not go into the draft, not wanting to be disappointed. When Willa received her offer to coach and be technical analyst at North Carolina Jennifer’s response left a lot to be desired, her focus was on their future in Orlando Pride and what it would mean to do long distance how hard it would be. There was no consideration for what Willa wanted, which was all too common in their relationship.
Willa walked into the athletes dining room ready for another early morning session, she didn’t expect to see Alessia sitting by herself with a textbook by her side. Willa filled up her plate and sat next to the blonde Brit. “Good morning.” Willa smiled warmly, Alessia’s blue eyes looked up at her. “Oh hi.” She sat back and put her fork down on her plate. “What are you doing here so early?” Alessia glanced at the bag on the ground. “You know training isn't until later right?” Willa nodded, “Yeah I know, I just wanted to go for a run at the field, test some things out.” She laughed softly. “Test some things out? Like what the grass length?” She looked back into the older girl’s eyes. “Well depending on the grass length it would change the time that it would take the ball to -” Willa noticed the joking nature of Alessia’s question and the grin she was now wearing. “Ah, um no not the grass length just wanted to check the drills we had planned. Wanting to make sure we are improving on particular things.” Willa looked down at her plate embarrassed slightly about her first answer to Alessia’s clearly rhetorical question. Alessia smiled and bumped gently into Willa’s side. “Sorry, sometimes my sarcasm doesn’t translate. Is it possible for me to come with you to see the drills?” Willa smiled and nodded, unable to answer with her mouth full of food. The rest of their breakfast was filled with casual conversation, Willa discovered that Alessia had gone through the academy system just as she did, she also discovered that she wasn’t a huge fan of the tea available to her in the dining hall. Yorkshire tea was clearly the most superior tea, although with her time in America, Alessia was now very coffee focused, Willa noted that an oat flat white was the younger girl’s order.
Willa and Alessia made their way to the field, she made Willa feel comfortable with no judgement or expectations on her. Alessia felt an instant connection to the young coach, Willa took an interest in what she had to say and never once questioned why she would leave a professional contract behind for college halfway across the world. Willa and Alessia worked on multiple drills for around two hours, by the end they were both trying to catch their breath. “How were they? The drills? They alright?” Willa looked at the blonde next to her. “Well I am absolutely knackered, but I feel good and got to work on my first touch. What did you think?” She fixed her blonde ponytail. “Your touch is bloody good already, I just need your shot conversions a bit higher.” Willa laughed and she smiled. “Oh yeah? As a Sophomore I am out-scoring some of the Seniors.” Alessia put her hands on her hips and looked at the taller girl. “You won’t be playing against these girls in England, or at a World Cup. You are going to play in the best league in the world. The NWSL is dropping in quality and that's the league these players want to end up in. Not you, you have to play in Europe.” Willa said it casually as she grabbed her drink bottle. Alessia stared at her expressions, there was no mistaking that Willa was serious, she was almost matter of factly the way she spoke. Alessia was about to reply to the quite nice comment before they heard Coach Dorrance calling out. “Willa don’t keep the players from class! She is here for an education not just to kick a ball around, if her grades drop you will be tutoring her!” Willa nodded, “Yes Sir, sorry Alessia. I will see you tonight at training,I think we will be looking at some footage after the session. I want to chat to you about some plays.” Willa handed Alessia her drink. “Thanks Willa, appreciate it.”
Alessia counted down the minutes until training, it isn't that she hated her classes, it was just that she couldn’t stop thinking about getting back on the field. Her aim was always to get better, each session added to her knowledge. The second class was finished for the day she was walking to the field, after warm up she watched as Willa explained the drills that she did with her that morning. During the drills in the hot sun, the girls began complaining about getting tired, their shots got more sloppy and their passing became wayward. Coach Dorrance called training and they all came into a group together, Willa had a grin on her face as some girls sat down and others caught their breath. “Well, that was a fantastic session. Willa has been doing some work on what we have been lacking and how we can improve. I know you girls are tired but I will let her chat to you about what the aim was.”
Willa stepped forward half a step. “Each game goes for around 90 minutes, give or take with additional time. The training today was medium to high intensity for 120 minutes. That gives both Coach and I an idea of what level you can maintain and for how long. Your disposals and shots only became detrimental to the function of the drills in the last 5 minutes. We now know that you can last 115 minutes, at a very good intensity. This is going to give us an advantage, we will also be doing lighter sessions after game day and doing recovery but these punishing sessions will give you a mental and physical edge over our opponents. In those moments when the other team is fatiguing you will remember this training and other after this and you will know you can push further. Great session, have a shower and we will meet you in the theater for a film session.” Willa grabbed the drink bottles and passed them around to the players, when she got to Alessia he looked into her eyes. “Feel a bit better with more players?” Alessia took a large drink from her bottle and nodded. “Yeah I actually got a rest.” She said slightly out of breath after her drink. “Good, you did really great.” Willa went around to other players and chatted to them, giving them tips on their movements and positioning. Alessia noticed that Willa genuinely wanted each player to be better than they were at the start of the session, she seemed excited to be involved even if it was picking up cones or organising everything for the coach.
As the girls got ready for the film session a few of them talked about Willa and how nice it was to have a cute girl coaching them and how they wouldn’t mind getting a few one on one sessions with her. Alessia laughed along with the girls, she was very attractive physically but it was her personality that seemed to be the best part of the Geordie. The girls made their way to the theatre and out the front stood Coach Dorrance, Willa sat up the back with a notepad, Alessia saw her and made her way next to her. “Can I sit here?” She paused as she looked at the girl. “Oh yes of course, I want to show you something.” She moved down a seat. “I will be going through with as many players as I can like this to make sure I cover everyone's game.” Alessia noticed that she flicked through her notebook which was divided for each player, she got to her and the first page was full of notes on her past season. “Last season you played as a very solid number 9, the player that would be the main option for goals, I don’t want that to change but I do want to have a look at your off the ball work.” As the game footage played, Coach Dorrance showed what the opposition did that North Carolina needed to address and work on for the off season. Willa focused on Alessia’s movement and where she would prefer her to move, “It is just as important what you do off the ball as what you do on it.” Alessia was captivated as she talked, Willa was captivated by the way Alessia played. They both admired each other's passion for the sport and their drive to make either themselves or their teams better. At the end of the film session the girls started leaving Willa and Alessia walked out together into the car park. “The scrimmage game in two days, I want you to focus on getting into those looser positions, drag those defenders out of the danger areas to allow a player to come through. They will want to follow you and not be aware of the danger that is coming. Trust me, then on the next play you come around the back and get to that back post for the cross and just knock it in. Easy as you like.” Alessia stared at her. “That easy?” She nodded. “They all know you, you will be marked tighter than a compression sock. Use it to your advantage. Goodnight Alessia, great work today” Alessia watched Willa walk back towards her car, she changed her line as she got closer and walked towards a black BMW parked with its lights on. Willa’s head dropped as she got into the car, Alessia watched and got into her own car. She had no idea whose car Willa had gotten into but it appeared she knew the person.

Larry Fink - CEO of BlackRock

Larry Fink is an American businessman and the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of BlackRock, one of the largest asset management firms in the world. Here's a detailed biography of his life and career: Early Life and Education: - Full Name: Laurence Douglas Fink - Born: November 2, 1952, in Van Nuys, Los Angeles, California, USA - Family Background: Fink's father, a shoe store owner, and his mother, a homemaker, came from a middle-class Jewish family. - Education: Fink attended UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) and earned a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science in 1974. He then went on to receive an MBA from the UCLA Anderson School of Management in 1976. Early Career & Rise in Finance: - First Job: Fink started his career as a bond trader at First Boston (now part of Credit Suisse) in 1976. - Rise in the Finance Industry: He quickly made a name for himself in the investment world. He became a managing director at First Boston, where he was instrumental in developing mortgage-backed securities—a key part of his early success. - First Boston: After earning his MBA from UCLA, Fink started his career at First Boston, a major investment bank, in 1976. Fink quickly gained attention due to his skill in bond trading. - Development of Mortgage-Backed Securities: During his time at First Boston, Fink was a pioneer in the development of mortgage-backed securities (MBS). This was a groundbreaking financial product that would later play a key role in the 2008 financial crisis. The idea was to bundle home loans together and sell them as securities to investors, allowing banks to offload the risk associated with mortgages. - Founding of BlackRock: - BlackRock's Founding: In 1988, Fink co-founded BlackRock with seven other partners. Initially, the firm focused on providing risk management and fixed-income institutional asset management services. - Growth of BlackRock: Under Fink’s leadership, BlackRock grew rapidly, expanding its offerings to include a wide range of asset classes, including equities, real estate, and alternatives. - Public Offering: In 1999, BlackRock went public and was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Today, it is one of the world’s largest asset managers, with trillions of dollars in assets under management. - Co-Founding BlackRock (1988): In 1988, Fink left First Boston to co-found BlackRock with a team of other investment professionals. The initial idea was to create an asset management firm that specialized in risk management. BlackRock started as a division of the investment bank Blackstone, and Fink was focused on fixed-income securities. - From Fixed Income to a Global Powerhouse: In 1992, BlackRock became independent of Blackstone, and Fink took over as CEO. Fink’s leadership was instrumental in expanding BlackRock’s scope, with the firm diversifying its investment offerings beyond just fixed-income products. By the late 1990s, BlackRock began to expand into equities, alternative investments, and real estate. Leadership and Influence: - CEO and Chairman: Fink has served as the chairman and CEO of BlackRock since its inception, helping transform the company into a global leader in investment management. - Role in the Financial Crisis: Fink’s leadership was crucial during the 2008 financial crisis, where BlackRock played a role in advising the U.S. government on troubled assets and helping stabilize financial markets. - Influence on Corporate Governance: Fink is well-known for his views on corporate responsibility and has become a leading advocate for long-term, sustainable investment. His annual letters to CEOs have gained significant attention, where he often calls for companies to prioritize environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors in their operations. Growth and Innovation at BlackRock: - BlackRock’s Public Offering: In 1999, BlackRock went public with an IPO, listing on the New York Stock Exchange. This allowed the firm to raise capital and continue expanding. By the mid-2000s, BlackRock was rapidly growing and expanding its reach globally. - Acquisitions: One of the key strategies Fink employed to grow BlackRock was acquiring other firms. Notable acquisitions included the purchase of Merrill Lynch’s asset management division in 2006, which helped BlackRock expand its client base and its presence in the U.S. and international markets. This deal brought in over $1 trillion in assets under management (AUM) to BlackRock. - Further Acquisitions: In 2009, BlackRock acquired Barclays Global Investors (BGI), another massive asset management firm, which made BlackRock the world’s largest asset manager at the time. The BGI acquisition helped BlackRock expand in exchange-traded funds (ETFs), particularly its iShares business, which remains a key component of its portfolio. The 2008 Financial Crisis: - Role in the Crisis: BlackRock played an important role during the 2008 financial crisis. The firm was hired by the U.S. government to help manage toxic assets that were tied to the collapse of the housing market. Fink’s firm was responsible for advising on the troubled assets of companies like AIG and Bear Stearns. - Stability and Leadership: Fink’s leadership during the crisis was widely praised for stabilizing markets. His knowledge of risk management helped guide the company and the broader financial system through the chaos. Transition to Sustainable Investing: - Long-Term Value: Fink began emphasizing long-term value creation over short-term profits in his communications with other CEOs and investors. He became a major advocate for a corporate focus on sustainability, social responsibility, and good governance. His 2018 letter to CEOs stated that companies that fail to adapt to long-term environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors risk losing their relevance. - BlackRock's Push for ESG: Under Fink’s leadership, BlackRock began to embrace ESG investing, offering investment products that prioritize companies with strong ESG practices. The firm became a pioneer in promoting sustainable investing and helping clients align their portfolios with long-term value creation. Advocacy and Public Stance: - Sustainability: Fink has increasingly emphasized the importance of sustainable investing, warning companies that they must adapt to environmental and social concerns or risk losing relevance in the marketplace. - Annual Letters: His annual letters to shareholders and CEOs often include calls for companies to focus on long-term value creation and address issues such as climate change, diversity, and social responsibility. - ESG Focus: Fink has pushed for more integration of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) factors into investment decisions, which has shaped much of BlackRock's strategy in recent years. Personal Life: - Family: Larry Fink is married to his wife, Lisa, and they have two children. Fink is known to be a private person, and he prefers to keep his personal life out of the media. - Wealth: As of 2023, Fink’s estimated net worth is in the billions, making him one of the wealthiest individuals in the world.

In 2020, BlackRock committed to eliminating investments in companies that generate more than 25% of their revenues from coal. Controversies: While widely regarded as a pioneer in the finance world, Fink’s approach has also drawn some criticism. Some argue that BlackRock's size and influence allow it to wield too much power in the financial system.

Lalita Tademy (December 26, 1948) left her prestigious and well-paid position as vice president and general manager at Sun Microsystems and began to search for a new direction in her life. Her career included stints at Bay Area Rapid Transit and Memorex, which led her in her 40s to a life of 12-hour days, a long commute to Silicon Valley. She loved the challenges of her corporate rise, she quit her job and with a three-year financial cushion began researching her family history.
After several years of extensive genealogical research that included gathering approximately 1,000 documents – photographs, census records, diaries, letters, birth certificates, newspaper articles, wills, land deeds, and the bill of sale for her great-great-great-great-grandmother, she began to write. She wove these historical materials into a novel that blends fact and fiction and tells the story of her maternal Louisiana ancestors over the turbulent years (1834-1936) from slavery to freedom to Reconstruction to Jim Crow.
Cane River was rejected by 13 publishers before it was published in 2001 to positive reviews. Cane River went on to become a selection of Oprah Winfrey’s Book Club and a bestseller. Her second novel Red River, is a story of the violence and broken promises of the post-Reconstruction South, and for it, she researched her father’s side of the family.
Although her family’s roots were in the South, she was born in Berkeley, California to Willie Dee Billes Tademy and Nathan G. Tademy, Jr., a contractor. She and her three siblings lived in a predominantly white neighborhood. Racially motivated threats caused the family to move several times. She attended Howard University before transferring to UCLA where she completed a BA in psychology and an MBA.
She married corporate executive Barry Williams (2004). She noted that her next book will not be about her family history or as she quotes her mother “putting our family business on the street.” #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence
