About Reese Mappin

I am a junior at Baylor University pursuing a career in sports sales, marketing, fan engagement, or entertainment. Currently, I am a Graphics Specialist Intern with ESPN Central Texas, where I create real-time game-day graphics, breaking news visuals, and analytics-based content designed to attract listeners and engage audiences across platforms. This role has strengthened my understanding of how strategic content and visual storytelling drive fan interest and audience growth.Previously, I interned with Alliance Sports Marketing, gaining hands-on experience in marketing, fan engagement, and event planning through community campaigns and live sporting events. There, I learned how to effectively market and sell to diverse fan bases by tailoring messaging and creating experiences that resonate. I am passionate about using creativity, strategy, and a strong work ethic to help sports organizations grow their audiences and deepen fan connections.
