All About Me

Here’s a little bit about me:

I’m a telecommunications student at the University of Florida and will be graduating in May. Sports have always been a big part of my life, especially since when I started playing softball at the age of 4. Eventually, my goal is to be a sports reporter for a MLB team, but really, I’d love to work in any sport I get the opportunity to.

Throughout my time at UF, I’ve done several things to help me along this career path, like be a beat reporter for the Gator baseball and men’s basketball teams. I’ve also been a sports anchor for our school’s TV station, which puts on a 30-minute 5 o’clock news show. The full list of all my activities is in my resume:

Currently, I’m a broadcasting intern with the Tampa Bay Rays, and it has been an amazing experience so far. Every day for work, I get to go to a baseball field, and honestly, I can’t imagine anything better than that. I’ve already had the chance to do so many cool things, and the regular season hasn’t even started yet. I’ve gotten to do several interviews with current players and prospects in the organization. Interviews and getting to talk with the players are one of my favorite parts about my job. In addition to that, I also do a lot of work on the production side, which is a lot of fun as well.

It’s safe to say sports consumes a pretty good chunk of my life and always has. But I wouldn’t want it any other way. I was born into a sports family and have been around and involved in them ever since. They are such a huge part of who I am, and I can’t wait to start a career that allows me to be around them every single day.
