Job before joining the LA Clippers.
During the pandemic I was doing contract freelance work selling brand partnerships for social media influencers. Before that, I was with BSE Global as Manager, Premium Partnerships selling suites for the Barclays Center.
When did you realize you wanted to work in sports?
When I saw Sport Management was an option to major in at East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania, that is when it even became a thought. It was a perfect fit since I have been an athlete my whole life and was on the DII Track and Field team.
What’s your favorite thing about your job?
The people. I get to connect and learn about multiple different businesses and leaders to understand what they do and how our new venue can be a powerful tool for their business. Sports is such a microcosm of society, I get to meet people I never would have been able to be in a room with because of one common bond, the sport.
What advice do you have for women trying to break into the sports industry?
Stay humble, be curious, ask why and challenge the status quo.
If you could have dinner with any woman in the world, who would it be and why?
Serena Williams! Her and I share a birthday and I would like to manifest having a birthday dinner with Serena to celebrate together. I’d love to hear her journey from focusing on being an athlete to owning and operating a venture capital company.
