About Me

Growing up outside Philadelphia, I learned early what it meant to stand by the teams I believed in, even when surrounded by opposing loyalties. That experience taught me the value of preparation, confidence, and staying true to my perspective. My love for the game developed from those moments, rooted in competition, storytelling, and respect for sports culture, and continues to shape the way I approach my work with purpose, credibility, and passion.

 

While attending an all-girls private Catholic high school, my love of sports grew and the beginning of my sports broadcasting career took off. I created and launched a sports show titled “Sports Center with Stetler,” in which I wrote, produced, and broadcast a weekly half-hour show updating my peers on news from the sports world and our school athletics. My goal for this program was to bridge the gap between women and sports through education and entertainment, while building an engaged community around our high school teams.

 

After graduating, I chose to attend Elon University, where I could immerse myself in a center of broadcast excellence and pursue my love of sports and journalism. I served as the producer and creator of “Inside the Nest,” an ESPN-style show in which my team and I covered stories around campus, highlighting athletes and fanbases. I also served as a color commentator for Elon Division I Athletics, including baseball, basketball, lacrosse, soccer, softball, and volleyball, through FloSports. In addition, I was chosen to serve as a student color commentator for Elon football through Learfield Radio and the Varsity Network App.

 

These journeys on campus helped me take steps outside of Elon and unlock doors to more opportunities. In March 2025, I was invited by Learfield professionals to serve as the only student color analyst for the 2025 Ally ACC Women’s Basketball Tournament semifinal and championship games. I then traveled home to Philadelphia for my 2025 summer internship, where I was selected through a highly competitive interview process to serve as the Broadcast Intern for the Philadelphia Union. When looking beyond sports media, sports management and event management also became avenues I began to explore. In May 2025, I earned a placement as one of 20 Corporate Hospitality Interns for the 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, North Carolina, where I collaborated with PGA executives and corporate partners, including Rolex, Bank of America, and JPMorgan, to ensure client satisfaction and support throughout the week of play. Following the conclusion of the championship, I was handpicked as one of five interns nationally to support the 2025 Ryder Cup operations in the Metropolitan Lounge, the Ryder Cup’s highest-level hospitality suite for premier clients and customers.

 

After graduating from Elon in May 2026, magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism, I returned home to Philadelphia to begin the next chapter of my career with the Philadelphia PGA Section. I first joined PGA REACH Philadelphia as a PGA WORKS Fellow and am now transitioning into my full-time role as the Philadelphia PGA Operations Manager. Coming home and working within the golf industry in the region that shaped my love of sports has been especially meaningful. I am excited for the opportunity to help tell the stories of the game of golf throughout the Philadelphia PGA Section; from the professionals who dedicate their careers to growing the game, to the players, programs, events, and communities that make golf such an important part of the region. In many ways, this opportunity allows me to bring together the two things that have always driven me: my connection to Philadelphia and my passion for telling the stories behind sports.

 

My college experience also taught me that sports are about far more than what happens between the lines. Through broadcasting, event management, and working alongside athletes, coaches, executives, and fans, I learned how powerful sports can be in bringing people together and creating a sense of community. Whether behind a microphone, helping produce an event, or working behind the scenes, I have found that every role provides an opportunity to tell a story and give people a reason to care. That perspective continues to guide me as I begin my professional career and look for new ways to connect people to the sports and communities they love.

I am grateful for the opportunity to learn from peers and industry experts at Elon and throughout my experiences in the sports industry. While striving toward a professional career, I am inspired to keep my passion close to my heart and fulfill the dreams of the little girl who simply fell in love with the game of football.
