A Bearcats for Life story
From the moment I stepped on campus, I knew I was a Bearcat for life.
The stunning architecture, vivid campus life and diverse ways of thinking filled my mind with a wonder and passion that has carried me through my undergraduate and professional life.
Wanting to pursue a career in sports media and content, I loved the proximity a UC education gave me to numerous professional leagues and teams, as well as on-campus opportunities with University Athletics. While at UC, I was able to work for the University, the Reds, Major League Baseball, the National Football League, and other sport agencies, start-ups and news publications, all while pursuing my undergraduate degree. None of this would have been possible without the support and opportunities provided by the University of Cincinnati.
My education gave me the ability to follow my dreams — and the people gave me the inspiration. I'm a proud Bearcat for life.
