"Who knew that you could combine your love of sports with work?! Being the EMC at SSC for 2 years was an absolute dream come true.
I've played sports my entire life, and they have always been such a vital role in both my physical and mental health. SSC is an extremely welcoming environment, with a focus on hard work and fun, and the tools to advance yourself in work and life.
As the EMC, I was able to challenge myself to make events bigger and better than ever before. This position pushed me to step outside of my comfort zone and kept me continually striving to do better. Seeing all of the smiling faces on a tournament day was one of the most rewarding feelings!"
