Glitz Feature: Santia Deck Launches First-Ever App to Help High School Athletes Get Recruited & Secure NIL Deals

Trailblazer. Game-changer. History-maker.

That’s what comes to mind when you say the name Santia Deck — and now, the powerhouse entrepreneur and pro athlete is making waves once again with the launch of her latest venture: a first-of-its-kind app designed to help high school athletes get recruited and land NIL deals.

On a mission to give student-athletes and their families more control over their futures, Santia’s newly launched WYW Recruiter app is built to bridge the gap between high school talent and collegiate recruiters, while also creating visibility for NIL opportunities.

“I’m so excited to play a role in helping these talented high school athletes reach the next level,” Santia shared. “And even more than that — I want them and their families to be empowered with more control over what happens next.”

With the fast-moving evolution of NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) rights and increasing competition for scholarships and brand partnerships, Santia recognized a major gap in access and representation — especially for young Black and Brown athletes.

WYW Recruiter is not just another platform. It’s a tool for equity, exposure, and empowerment.

Athletes will be able to:

Create standout digital profiles

Showcase highlights and academic achievements

Get matched with recruiters and college coaches

Explore brand opportunities and NIL education resources

Often dubbed the “Queen of Abs” and one of the first Black women to own a sneaker company, Santia has become a cultural icon at the intersection of sports, entrepreneurship, and empowerment. Her latest innovation is a full-circle moment — giving back to the community she once came from by opening doors for the next generation.

The buzz is already building. From coaches to parents to athletes across the country, @wywrecruiter is being celebrated as the app the youth sports world has been waiting for.

And with over 2,000+ views in its early rollout, the response is clear:

This isn’t just an app — it’s a movement.

Glitz Magazine celebrates women like Santia Deck, who are changing the game, building legacy, and making sure no young dream gets left behind.

Keep your eyes on this app — and on the athletes who rise because of it.
