Cody Monk, CEO and Founding Partner | E-Mail

Cody Monk’s passion for sports is as deep-rooted as his varied  experience. He has covered events on four continents and used his language skills to write and work in the agriculture, journalism, education, airline and petroleum sectors.

That background has brought HiTEX! Enterprises success in a myriad of arenas. Initially, Monk led the company to its relationship with, among others, the Football Writers Association of America. Now, he has also put HiTEX! on the forefront of emerging Latin American markets with the founding of ¡Realizar el Sueño!, an English language and cultural integration program for Latin American baseball prospects.

Monk is an authority on Latin baseball and, in particular, baseball in the Dominican Republic. He is a regular in the Spanish-speaking media, both domestically and internationally, discussing the cultural and anthropological effects of sports in the Latino-American community and on Latin nations.

Monk is the author of Alfonso Soriano: The Dominican Dream Come True and Legends of the Dallas Cowboys, as well as their Spanish translations. He is also the co-author of Have More Money Now with World Wrestling Entertainment's John "Bradshaw" Layfield.

Monk has taught Spanish on the university level and is currently pursuing a graduate degree in Latin American studies at the University of Miami, where he is studying on a full fellowship and teaching assistantship at the university’s Center for Sport and Society.
