Candace Parker is one of the most decorated basketball players of all time. WNBA Champion, WNBA Finals MVP, 2x WNBA MVP, 2x Gold Medalist, and WNBA Rookie of the Year are just some of Candace’s many accomplishments throughout her career on the court.

Candace works strategically with Fifth Down and its various holdings, including Mike’s Hot Honey, where Candace serves on the company's Board of Directors. Candace lives in California with her wife and their three kids.
