Company: Wasserman Media Group in the Team Sports Division
Responsibilities: Working with NBA players and Nike on their shoe contracts
How did WSU's Sport Management Program prepare you?
The contacts I made during my internship at UCLA ended up leading to this current
position. Also, the finance class was especially helpful as I do a lot of work with
billing.
Advice for future and current student:
“Everyone you meet make sure to stay connected with them because that is the key
to the sports business. All this takes is just emailing them about 3 times a year
and don't bug them but keep it short and let them know what you are doing with internships
to class work and that will keep the connection, because you never know who can help
you."
