About Sam Settleman
Current MBA/MS in Sport Management candidate at UMass Amherst with four years of experience in the sports media industry, including with The Athletic, Action Network, FOX Sports, and the Daily Bruin. I’m passionate about blending compelling storytelling with data-driven insights to uncover new ways to amplify underrepresented sports. I graduated summa cum laude from UCLA in 2023 with a double major in economics and political science. But my time at UCLA was defined by my work with the Daily Bruin, where I spent three years as a staff writer, assistant Sports editor, and Sports editor. I authored 266 stories and edited over more, was named the top student sports columnist in the country in 20••••23, and led the section to a first-place showing in College Media Association\'s Best Web Sports Section award, handed out to the top student newspaper sports section in the country.
