Real Stories. Careers Launched.
Sports Career Launch is built around practical guidance, honest feedback, and genuine investment in people. These stories highlight students and young professionals who received support with networking, interview preparation, resumes, career decisions, and understanding the sports industry more clearly.
Each path looked different, but the goal was the same: help them move forward with more clarity, confidence, and preparation.
Joseph
From Searching for Direction to the Dallas Cowboys
Joseph was searching for his first job in sports and wanted a clearer understanding of the entry-level opportunities available to him. Through conversations around networking, interview preparation, and managing opportunities, he was able to better understand the sports career path and how to approach his next steps.
After working together, Joseph began his career as an Account Executive for AT&T Stadium and later advanced into a Membership Sales Consultant role with the Dallas Cowboys.
“Kyle provided me with excellent insight into jobs, what managers and directors look for in salespeople, and how to be an authentic networker. I would not be where I am in my career without Kyle’s help.”
Current Role: Membership Sales Consultant, Dallas Cowboys
Anthony
From Interview Frustration to a Role in the NHL
Anthony was applying for jobs and earning interviews, but he was struggling to turn those opportunities into offers. He was getting discouraged and needed support with his resume, LinkedIn, networking, interview preparation, and the overall hiring process.
Together, we worked through his materials, prepared for interview questions, and practiced mock sales call scenarios so he could walk into the process with more confidence. After that preparation, Anthony earned more interviews, advanced to final rounds, and ultimately accepted a full-time role with the Chicago Blackhawks.
“Kyle truly wants what’s best for you, and he shows it through the effort he puts into helping those around him. He is not only willing to look at resumes and cover letters, but to actually meet with you and help you prepare so you are fully ready.”
Current Role: Inside Sales Representative, Chicago Blackhawks
Zach
From Career Uncertainty to a Confident Decision
Zach was weighing an important decision during his senior year: accept an inside sales opportunity with an NFL team or continue his education and pursue a master’s degree. He wanted honest guidance from someone who understood the sports industry and could help him think through the opportunity clearly.
Through our conversation, we discussed what the role would actually involve, the expectations of working in sports sales, the salary, and what life could look like if he accepted the position. Zach ultimately chose to continue his education, a decision he believes opened doors and expanded his opportunities.
“Kyle was instrumental throughout the entire process. I leaned on him because I knew I could trust him, and I genuinely valued what he had to say. He shared his real-life experiences openly and honestly, and made it clear that he had my best interests in mind.”
Current Role: NIL Partnership Solutions Coordinator, Longhorn Sports Agency
