The Rest:
Like many people in the sports industry I've loved sports, specifically football, since a young age. My father was in the Navy, so my family moved around overseas and in the States many times. While homes were never consistent, watching/playing football with my brothers always was!
In high school I stumbled across design in an elective class, and I discovered a passion for developing new ideas from the world around me. I never thought I could make a career out of my two loves of design and sports, but here I am just a few years later!
I decided to cross the country for my 4 years of college and it was a great decision. The University of Oregon was an amazing sports community where I cultivated leadership/teamwork skills and learned a lot about sports design along the way.
One week after graduating in June of 2019 I started at the Kansas City Chiefs as a Seasonal Digital/Social Assistant. I was very lucky to start my career here first because the team of people I worked under are extremely talented, and second because we won the Super Bowl!
My most recent stop is with Jacksonville University. I accepted the position of Graphic Design & Photography Graduate Assistant in April of 2020, and have been pushing the JU dolphins brand to new limits for almost two years. While at JU working full-time I received my MBA.
The past two seasons I have worked with the NFL as a Live-Content Correspondent at Jacksonville Jaguars games. This position serves as a videographer responsible for capturing content and distributing it to fans in real-time. The NFL has trusted me to work games in Jacksonville, Tampa, Miami, New Orleans, Dallas, and Green Bay thus far.
