Volunteer, intern or do game-night staff.”
 “I left a paying job to take an internship with the
San Jose Sharks at the age of 24. I was excited to
be doing anything in pro sports, especially for
my hometown team. I was very fortunate to
have a position that allowed me to work in
different departments. I enjoyed my time in the
sponsorship department the most, and I was
lucky that an entry-level position opened up. It
was certainly a risk worth taking.”
