Throughout the fall of 2024, I worked on a Capstone experience, College Sports: Follow the Money. My group and I were tasked with finding ways to boost viewership, social media presence, and sponsorship sales to grow the business overall. We made progress by giving the podcast the basis for posts and collecting data on how social media was something we essentially pushed to complete. The experience helped with time management, communication, and other professional skills with everyone in TexAgs and the podcast team. Being able to work with Follow the Money, I have also gained production experience behind the scenes and everything that went into it. I have grown as a person and in my career as a skill for future jobs.
