Live Events Intern
As a Live Events Intern with USF Athletics, I support game-day production, fan engagement, and in-stadium entertainment through live event operations, marketing activations, and creative storytelling. Working behind the scenes has strengthened my understanding of audience engagement, branding, and the role production plays in shaping live sports experiences.
Behind the energy
This edit was created during USF’s homecoming football game, using fast-paced clips, music syncing, and crowd-focused visuals to capture the energy and atmosphere of game day through short-form sports content.
USF’s homecoming game brought together students, alumni, and fans for one of the biggest events of the season. Supporting in-game operations during such a high-energy environment gave me hands-on experience in live production, timing coordination, and audience-focused entertainment.
Although my role in Live Events wasn’t focused on photography or social media, capturing moments like these quickly became one of my favorite parts of game days. Whether through photos or video, I’ve always loved finding ways to tell the story behind the atmosphere, energy, and emotion of live sports
