Sports Business Secrets
Season 2 || Episode 388
Today’s guest is Jordan Confessore, the Associate Commissioner of Men's Basketball for the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference! The MAAC also happens to be the conference that my beloved Quinnipiac Bobcats' play in :)
Jordan played basketball at Ithaca College where she got a degree in sports media. I first met Jordan when we both worked at a small sports marketing firm in Princeton, called the Gazelle Group. Shortly after we met, she started her journey at the MAAC and has taken over several roles over the past 10 years!
