My First Job in Sports has reached a milestone with 40 episodes. For this episode, Dr. G. and I interviewed Lainey Selby from EHPLabs, a leading innovator in supplements, energy drinks, and products for those who want to maximize their workout and active lifestyle activities. Lainey has an interesting story that didn’t take a traditional route to lead Retail Marketing and Partnerships for EHPLabs.

Episode 39 of My First Job in Sports was a special one for a few reasons. This is one of our special Get in The Game editions of the MFJIS podcast. Regular co-host Dr. G. was busy with her full-time job at Temple University, so I invited my Get in the Game Sports Career Conference partner, Yussuf Khan, to join the show. The second reason this episode was very special was our interview with Andrea Lattimore. Andrea is the manager of Talent Acquisition Programs and Community Engagement at Acushnet Company, the maker of top-tier golf brands, including Titleist and FootJoy.

Saying that Andrea is “all in” underestimates her incredible accomplishments. The external partners she supports beyond her primary responsibilities include: The First Tee, PGA Works, Fore Hire, and Women In Golf Foundation (WIGF). Some of her recent achievements are being a featured panelist at PGA Works Beyond The Green and being appointed as an inaugural member of the Women in Sports Technology (WisT) HBCU Talent Pipeline Advisory Committee. Andrea’s career story is very non-linear, and she never imagined that golf would be her destination. She is a perfect example of how you never really know where your future will take you.

For Episode 38 of My First Job in Sports, Dr. G and I talked with Brady Ulloa, Senior Business Analyst at Miller Sports and Entertainment. He graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Applied Analytics & Statistics with a minor in Business Management. He has advanced his degree by working closely as Business Intelligence Manager for the two professional soccer teams owned by Miller, Real Salt Lake and Utah Royals FC. If you're interested in making business analytics your career in sports, this is a must-watch or listen. It also shows how someone can use their love for a specific sport along with their education.
