Age: 22

 

Hometown: Eagan, Minnesota

 

Undergrad studies: Major: Sport Management Minor: Leadership

 

Career goals/”Dream Job”: I would like to pursue my dream of coaching upon receiving my master. Then I would like to transition to marketing within college athletics. Finally, I would like to get my Doctorate in leadership and teach undergraduate/graduate studies within the field of sport management/administration, specifically sport philosophy.

 

Work/internship experience: I am finishing my career as a division I student-athlete this year. I have worked within the Central Michigan University Facilities and Event management staff helping with the execution of many football games, MAC tournaments CMU has hosted, and other community related events. I am currently working within the athletic department as a student-athlete and helping to coordinate events through the student-athlete career services department. I have been very involved in coaching throughout my life both for local soccer academies near my hometown and at Central Michigan University.

 

Name your greatest achievement: In my mind my greatest achievement was completing my undergraduate studies and graduating early with honors, and while still continuing to play my sport I am working to complete my masters.

 

What makes you different from others in your field? I believe that I have a different outlook on sports having been involved at the collegiate and semi professional level.
