About Me

I am a graduate student at The University of Alabama pursuing a master’s in journalism and media studies, with a concentration in sports media. Since my time on campus, I have been involved with Alice Magazine. I have had the honor of having my articles published on their website and in their print editions. After writing for them for two years and taking on the role of marketing editor, I was promoted to digital director. I am excited to lead our digital initiatives.

Outside of the classroom, I am currently a social media intern with Birmingham Legion. I live-tweet the games and write captions for social media posts, engaging with fans and building excitement around matchday experiences. In my free time, I continue to work as the executive assistant for the M. Kukoyi Foundation, which supports various organizations and charities primarily based in Africa by raising funds and donating materials. My main role is contacting people and organizations that the foundation wants to collaborate with.

When I’m not interning or working with the foundation, I focus on my platform, Footie With Morin, where I discuss topics around the world of soccer.

My overall career aspiration is to become head of social media or head of marketing/branding for an English Premier League club. Soccer has always been a passion of mine, and I believe more women should be in key roles at major soccer clubs. I hope to one day achieve my career goals and make a positive impact for women who share the same ambitions.
