Business Operations Support @ Tough Draw

About

I build and support brands from the inside out across creative execution, athlete relations, and day to day operations within the Western sports industry. At Tough Draw, I work at the intersection of storytelling, logistics, and relationships. My role spans branding, photography, social media, podcast production, documentary support, and athlete communications, helping ideas move from vision to reality. I am comfortable wearing multiple hats and stepping into the gaps that keep projects moving. Whether coordinating athletes, capturing behind the scenes moments, managing communications, or strengthening brand consistency, I focus on clarity, reliability, and follow through. My background began in veterinary medicine at 14, where I developed discipline, adaptability, and a strong sense of responsibility. Those traits continue to shape how I lead and support teams today. I believe strong brands are not built by strategy alone. They are sustained through execution, trust, and steady leadership behind the scenes.
