Please wish me luck in my newest endeavor! I am almost halfway through writing my new book titled "Internships in the Sport Industry: Real-World Endeavors, Competencies, and Best Practices." This work is inspired by my 15 years of guiding and mentoring University of Cincinnati Sport Administration undergraduate students with their practicum and capstone internship experiences. The book aims to benefit both students and practitioners in the sport industry.
