About David Curkin

As a dedicated professional with a strong foundation in Sports Management and Business Administration, I have cultivated a diverse skill set through my experiences in both collegiate athletics and the sports industry. I earned my Bachelor\'s degree in Sports Management from Southern Illinois University, followed by a Master\'s degree in Business Administration from Clarke University.My journey in sports began with hands-on roles, including serving as a student manager for the men\'s basketball team at SIU. This foundational experience led me to Clarke University, where I spent three seasons with the men\'s basketball program—two as a Graduate Assistant and one as an Assistant Coach/Recruiting Coordinator. These roles deepened my understanding of basketball operations and enhanced my coaching and recruitment skills.In addition to my coaching background, I have worked in ticket sales for the Orange Bowl Committee and the Florida Panthers, which honed my sales and customer service abilities. I also gained valuable experience in staffing with Tenth Revolution Group and Oxford Global Resources, where I developed strong organizational and communication skills.I am now actively seeking opportunities in basketball operations, video coordinator, scouting roles with college or professional teams. I am passionate about contributing to a dynamic organization and leveraging my skills to support player development and team success.Let’s connect and explore how I can bring value to your team!
