Seeking an internship in the sports industry
Austin, Texas USAAbout
Growing up as an avid sports fan, I knew I wanted to be involved with sports for the rest of my life at a young age. Watching it expand and grow to the size and influence it has today has only made that desire stronger while allowing me to develop some of my own ideas to bring into the industry.
