My name is Ryan Arnold and I am the summer intern at Knox Sports Marketing. I am from West Hartford, CT, and am a huge Boston sports fan. Though a huge Boston sports fan, I am in the sunny state of Florida to get a degree in sports management and I am also working to get a minor in marketing. I attend the University of Tampa and am currently a senior.
After graduation, I am unsure where I want to work but I know that I may want to be involved in the sales side of sports. Eventually, a hope of mine is to create my own business in sports. I am also unsure of what type of company I will want this to be but I think over the next few years I will be able to figure that out as well. Hopefully, having this internship this summer will help me realize what my post-grad work could look like and help me to figure out the aspects of working in sports I like and dislike.
I am very active on campus and am involved in a couple of different organizations at the University of Tampa. I am a member of the club golf team as well as the President of the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity. When not in class, I spend most of my time golfing. I also enjoy working out, going to the beach, and hanging out with my friends. Watching sports games is also something I enjoy. There really isn't a sport I don't enjoy watching with my friends.
All in all, I am eager for the experiences and relationships that I will be building this summer at Knox Sports, and am thankful to them for this great opportunity!
