• Honest. Caring. Team player. Timely. Leader.• I have been passionate about sports for as long as I can remember. My father worked in sports for a large portion of my life and he instilled that same passion in me when I was a child. Whether it has been playing or working in sports, I have enjoyed every step of the journey and that same passion that I found early on continues to grow each day. That is why I decided to pursue a Sport Management degree, so I could continue to stay in the industry that I love so much.• I have long considered myself to be a hard worker who will seek out new tasks and challenges. At age 16 I was hired by Chick-fil-A in Greensboro where I have learned so many valuable lessons that I am still putting to use today. My work at CFA has led to another passion in my life, this one being to lead others. I was promoted into a leadership role two years ago and helping to develop and lead younger employees like I once brought me great joy.• However, now that I spend most of my time in Raleigh, I can no longer spend my days helping others at CFA. I now spend extensive time as a student manager in the equipment room for NC State Football. Taking on this role recently has been a change of pace for my life because now I truly get to see behind the curtain of how a major sports program operates and I have loved every second of it. The lessons that I have learned through my time at CFA and now for the football team will stick with me throughout my life as I continue to further my career in the sports industry.
