About Mykala Walker
As General Manager at Syracuse University, I contribute to shaping the strategic direction, culture, and competitive success of the program. My responsibilities span talent evaluation, roster management, and cultivating a professional environment that supports both athletic and personal growth. I serve as a key liaison between coaching staff, student-athletes, families, and external stakeholders, ensuring alignment with Syracuse Athletics’ values and long-term vision. With over ten years of experience as an Assistant Coach and Recruiting Coordinator, I bring a strong foundation in sports marketing, publicity, and public relations. My current role draws upon these skills in fostering collaboration and building relationships, while my expertise in strategic creative development and public relations further enhances the program\'s mission.
