About Crista Bain

Passionate. Motivated. Versatile. Organized. Industrious. Driven NC State graduate striving to strengthen community engagement in the sports industry. Driven by a passion for facilitating connections between athletes and the community, I focus on creating creative solutions to a wide range of problems. I thrive when faced with challenges and enjoy spending time volunteering for charitable causes. I previously interned with the NC State Football team working in community engagement and student leadership enhancement while assisting the athletic training department. Our major projects included partnering to send cards to the WakeMed pediatric patients and Wolfpack Blitz, our reading program in coordination with Wake County elementary schools. The annual Wolfpack Blitz allows NC State student-athletes the opportunity to read and speak to local elementary schoolers about the importance of reading. My previous experience includes game-day operations, promotions, athletic training management, social media, and coaching. I am looking to enter the professional field as a collegiate Assistant Director of team Operations. I look forward to expanding my professional network and utilizing my talents to develop rewarding community relationships.
