Growing up, D'Sean Perry always had a love of art. He spent free time drawing and painting as a youngster, got into ceramics in high school, and became a studio art major at Virginia. Most recently, the UVa junior linebacker has been tackling digital art projects, computer designs and even a 3D printer project. Now, Perry's passion for art is intersecting with teammate Jack Camper's new business venture, as both look to take advantage of college athletics' new name, image and likeness opportunities. Cam per, a transfer defensive end from Michigan State, and two childhood friends from his native Virginia Beach, have launched College Cards NFTs, a company that helps college athletes mint non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, then sell them to the public."T he NFT is open ended," said Perry, who is one of the first Virginia teammates to connect with Camper's new company. "It has unlimited freedom to do, honestly, whatever you want." Camper, who transferred to UVa this spring to be closer to his family, but sat out practice while rehabbing an upper body injury, founded College Cards with David Scherrer, a former distance runner at Brown and Boston College, and Jacob Boynewicz, a former lacrosse player at the Milwaukee School of Engineering. - Charlottesvill e Daily Progress
