Clint Johnson is the Founder and Managing Partner of Pinnacle Legacy Advisors, a premier strategic advisory and capital positioning firm operating at the intersection of sports, business, and legacy wealth creation. A former elite athlete turned advisor, Johnson brings firsthand experience, executive-level deal expertise, and a deep network across professional sports and business leadership.
A blue-chip high school football prospect with more than 30 Division I scholarship offers, Johnson chose the University of Notre Dame — one of the most storied programs in college football. He went on to sign professionally with the Atlanta Falcons (NFL) and the Edmonton Eskimos (CFL), gaining early exposure to the business mechanics of professional athletics and the contract negotiations that would later define his advisory career.
Following his playing career, Johnson transitioned into athlete representation, contract negotiation, and strategic advisory. He has successfully negotiated NFL and MLB contracts and represented professional athletes in a wide range of business, branding, and post-career ventures. His advisory scope extends beyond traditional representation — focusing on long-term wealth positioning, strategic partnerships, and enterprise value creation for clients.
My approach combines institutional-level strategy with a highly personalized advisory model. The goal is never just the next deal — it's building sustainable equity and multi-generational value that outlasts the game itself.
— Clint Johnson, Founder & Managing Partner
