About Destiny Morton

Destiny shares Nelson Mandela’s idea that \"Sport has the power to change the world.[and] the power to unite people in a way that little else does.\" It has made her passionate about Sport as a reflection of society for the last decade. Destiny is energized through the belief that Sport can inspire and be a catalyst for change and enjoys behind-the-scenes operational roles that enable such efforts. Morton has been involved in various disciplines from luxury catering, premium seating management, hotels, and currently, corporate event services and live event production with a specialty in fan experiences and operations. Outside of office hours, odds are high you\'ll find her outside playing beach volleyball and tennis, cheering for the Alabama Crimson Tide, being a plant mom, hosting or belting out some karaoke tunes.
