I'm a determined youthful individual looking to flourish in the business side of the sports industry. Any opportunity I am given I will personally promise to make the most of and not take for granted. I'm fully aware of the small circle this industry comes with but I'm willing to do whatever it takes to be not only part of it, but to make an impacting force within it.

As a second-year student at the University of Texas, I am pursuing a bachelor's degree in Sport Management in which I will use this education to positively impact the industry I am passionate about. I am also obtaining a minor in business so that I will have the fundamental background information and a detailed knowledge of how a business/corporation that I plan on working for effectively runs. In addition, I am receiving a Certificate in Applied Statistical Modeling because today's sport society is fueled on analytical decisions and it is now a world of numbers. This thorough education is my attempt at separating myself from other hopeful candidates striving for positions in our industry.

I'm currently exploring internship opportunities that will optimistically lead to long-term positions within the team's organization. I can be reached through my social media profiles, by email at gdbankston2015@utexas.edu, or by phone at 512-760-0377.
