MLS NEXT Pro
Play-by-play Broadcaster
Following graduation in May 2022, I joined MLS NEXT Pro midway through the season. I spent the rest of the season as a Play-by-Play Broadcaster. I was a solo broadcaster, so I was calling each game on my own. This was a great for me to get repetition and grow as a broadcaster. As a soccer enthusiast, it was great to call games for a professional soccer league.

Through participation and observation, this internship gave me the skills and knowledge of many different departments in a news station including: News/Sports, Creative Services, Programming & Public Affairs, Sales & Marketing, and Engineering and IT. WBAL-TV 11 also gave me the opportunity to work on location as a production assistant for their Olympics coverage, Olympic Zone. I learned new things every day about broadcast, and will take those lessons anywhere I go.

Intern
During my time at Towson University, I interned with the Towson Sports Network, Towson Universities student-run sports network. TSN is the broadcast home of all the sports Towson athletics offers. While there, I was a play-by-play broadcaster, sideline reporter, camera operator, video editor, and producer. Throughout my two years with TSN, I worked close to 200 different sporting events, giving me plenty of repetition to build my broadcast style and knowledge for the business.
Seattle Mariners
Social Media Associate

I develop content for Mariners and secondary social media accounts on platforms including Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Threads. I assist with live in-game social media coverage for both home and away games. I shoot/edit photos & videos; create graphics, highlight reels, GIFs, TikToks; craft social copy. The Seattle Mariners have a great culture built on collaboration, and it has allowed me to make meaningful contributions to the team while continuing to learn every day.
