Hi! My name is Kendall Meunier and I'm a Public Relations student at Syracuse University. As a PR student, I have a passion for communication and media, but my biggest passion is sports. I fell in love with sports at age 6, and found my true love with basketball at age 9. I played for almost 10 years before I graduated high school, and my goal for my continued studies was to combine my two favorite things: talking and basketball. I originally entered the Newhouse School of Public Communications as a Broadcast and Digital Journalism major, but I later found myself more interested in sports marketing rather than broadcast journalism. As a student at Syracuse, I've had the opportunity to explore my interests and expand both my analytical and creative skills. I am going into my third season with the Syracuse Men's Lacrosse team, who I work for as a a student manager. I work closely with the coaches and director of operations year-round to ensure the team is prepared for practices, games, and travel, as well as being responsible for film and upload. Recently, I became the head of Marketing and Promotions for the Public Relations Student Society of America- Sports Affinity. My current role requires me to find guest speakers and assist the president of our chapter in setting up meetings, info sessions, as well as outreach and practical application in the industry. I have also joined ACC Network and have started shadowing the social media director and executive producer to grow my understanding of behind-the-scenes work. Now, I'm looking to expand my knowledge in the sports world and learn from others who are just as passionate as I am.
