    Women in Sports with Jaelyn Arndt

    While we can name a variety of industries that are dominated by men, professional athletics has been known for its inequalities against women. In today's episode, Jaelyn Arndt shares her own experiences she had as a student-athlete and how those moments prepared her for her role within the NCAA. She opens up about her experiences working in a male-dominated field and the inequalities women athletes face, along with her hot take on the recent Women's March Madness tournament, providing a really unique perspective on the excitement and the intensity of the event. Jalen Arndt is the Associate Director of Communications for the NCAA. From sharing inspiring stories of student-athletes on social media to working behind the scenes, she plays a vital role in amplifying their voices and achievements. As a former collegiate athlete herself, Jalen brings in such a unique perspective to the table.
