SARAH GRIFFIN

I am a twenty-one year old college student studying History and Communications with sportswriting aspirations. Though studying history is not the most typical route to enter the sports media field, I have gained experienced through internships and freelance opportunities including: the AHL Providence Bruins, Pitcher List, the NWHL Boston Pride, Bruins Diehards, and the Legacy Leagues of Rhode Island. Outside of sports, I'm a published academic author, most notably with my senior thesis in both the Archives at the Kennedy Center, as well as SAHO, the South African History Online.

My full resume is available upon request.
