My life Working (& competing) in Sports

I played college tennis while working in athletic communications, serving as captain in both undergrad and graduate school. Balancing the grind of competition with the hustle of sports marketing gave me a full perspective of the artist-athlete experience, and the most rewarding part was telling stories and building platforms that made athletes feel seen and supported.
