“My journey towards attaining a full-time position with the Pittsburgh Penguins started during my freshman year at Point Park University,” said Martin. “In 2013, I began volunteering for the Pittsburgh Penguins Foundation, working their game-night silent auctions. Gaining this hands-on experience so early on in my career proved to be invaluable,” she added.
Martin earned a Bachelor of Science degree in sports, arts and entertainment management (SAEM) and an MBA degree concentrated in business analytics from Point Park University in Downtown Pittsburgh.
At Point Park, Martin was involved in many student activities including the Pittsburgh Center for Sports Media and Marketing, SAEM Club, Student Accounting Association, Honor Student Organization, HSO Mentor, Phi Beta Lambda and a Graduate Assistant for the Rowland School of Business Sports, Arts and Entertainment Management program.
