Why did you choose to Intern at FOX Sports Ohio - I wanted to intern at FOX Sports Ohio because I knew that they would offer me a great opportunity to learn a lot in my career field. I wanted to learn about the sports television business while also working for a major company like FOX Sports. I knew that the employees here would have a lot of information and experience to offer me and that I could learn from in order to better understand my own career goals and aspirations.
Bio - My first two years at Baldwin-Wallace were spent playing baseball, which was also my favorite sport throughout high school. Last summer, I was an intern for Rochester Community Baseball in their promotions department who owns the Rochester Red Wings, a Triple-A affiliate in New York. This summer I will return there to intern in their media relations department. I really enjoyed working for them and at a ballpark every night. I realized while I was there that my future has to be in the sports industry. Outside of work, I am a huge Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Braves fan. I also love the summer weather and plan to move somewhere warmer than Cleveland and New York someday.
