Episode 8- Kirby Porter: Former Harvard Guard and Current Director of Marketing at Will Ventures

Kirby Porter is a former standout guard for Harvard University. Since she left the hardwood she has had experience working for the New England Patriots, Under Armour, and Pepsico, is currently a content creator, podcast founder/host, brand manager, author, named to the Front Office Sports 25 under 25 list, Sports Business Journal's 30 under 30 list, and is now the Director of Marketing at Will Ventures, a sports venture capital firm... How about that for an introduction? 

It is hard to cover so many different areas in one episode, but we do our best to shed light on the various areas where Kirby is making an impact. In an episode that teaches ways to create your own content, instructs how athletes should enhance their brand, and sheds light on what Kirby is looking forward to in the creator economy, most of this content you cannot find anywhere else.

I hope you guys take some notes!
