My name is Brandi Dean and I am finishing up my 5th and final year of undergrad at the University of Cincinnati. I am majoring in Sport Administration with a minor in Marketing. These past 4.5 years have been an amazing opportunity filled with many ups and downs. I am proud to say that I conquered undergrad, and am truly excited to see what the future has in store for me.

​

I have grown so much throughout my time at UC. I stepped out of my shell and found what I love to do, which is to travel and work in sports. I have been fortunate enough through UC and the University Honors program to study abroad multiple times and explore my passions and continue to learn and grow. I have completely finished classes and am 2 weeks away from completing my internship with Hermes Sports & Events in Cleveland, OH. This internship is the last thing standing in between me and walking that stage and receiving my diploma.

​

​In life with every challenge comes many blessings. The one thing, or should I say person, that makes me who I am and drives me to succeed is my 19 month old daughter Ariyah. I'll be the first to admit that having a child while still in college is a challenge, but I managed to make it work. I will be graduating on Saturday, April 28, 2018 and I am ecstatic that she will be there to share that moment with me even though she won't be old enough to remember it.

 

Look out world here I come!
