  WHAT I LEARNED ABOUT BUSINESS FROM RACING CARS – KEVIN MULLEADY OPENS UP “Two of my greatest passions include building companies and racing cars,” says  Kevin Mulleady , a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist. “The former sounds a lot safer than the latter,” he laughs, “but I’ve found a lot of parallels over the years.

  KEVIN MULLEADY DISCUSSES THE BENEFITS OF SKY DIVING “When you think of skydiving, you usually think of adrenaline junkies – people who love to live on the edge, who live impulsively. You may even think of people with a few screws loose,” jokes  Kevin Mulleady . “But there are real psychological and physiological benefits to skydiving and other extreme sports like it. And people get into those sports for all sorts of reasons.” Kevin Mulleady Discusses How He Got Into Skydiving “I love skydiving,” enthuses Mulleady, “I love the rush and the sensation of flying – one reason I got into skydiving was because, like so many kids who grew up with G.I.
