About Me

A Little Background

Growing up in Nashville, I was exposed to the sport and entertainment industry at a young age. I got to watch Nashville become what it is today. I witnessed the city host the NFL Draft, NHL All-Star games, Stanley Cup Playoffs, NHL Stadium Series, SEC Basketball Tournament and NFL Playoffs as well as open a new MLS franchise and stadium. I knew I wanted to be part of it. I set a goal, and I've been working hard to make it a reality.

I enrolled in the Sport and Entertainment major at the University of South Carolina. There, I became academically equipped to begin my career. UofSC's program emphasizes the importance of exposure and experience. I have had the opportunity to work for Major League Lacrosse, the Nashville Predators and the Nashville Sports Council. I recently wrapped up my internships and graduated Magna Cum Laude. I am eager to begin my career and look forward to bringing my experience to work place.
