" There is space for anyone who likes sports. The industry needs every bit of creativity you can bring." - Kenisha Rhone.
Kenisha also oversees the athletic department's social media and digital efforts. She has over 16 years of experience working with media contacts and sports information for volleyball, softball, and track & field athletes. Member of the College Sports Information Directors of America, she has been a national programming committee member for seven years. She is the vice president of the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ).
She has been involved in community service forever; she is a Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. member. She assists on the walk day committee for the Susan G. Komen Central Tennessee MORE THAN PINK Walk. Kenisha frequently volunteers to speak to youth groups in several high schools, and she mentors young students.
For Kenisha, volunteering is essential to help us grow as society members, and it also helps to unplug ourselves from our daily routines/worries. "Taking action in volunteering allows us to see people in their full humanity, even us.", she says. To disconnect from our world and have empathy and social consciousness about what is happening around us will let us grow and evolve.
I asked her what kind of people should avoid considering getting into the sports industry. As the sports industry doesn't stop, and it is almost impossible to establish a regular routine, she said, control freaks, people looking for a calm and well-planned workweek should avoid the industry. Virtually all the time, something is happening, and nowadays, in pandemic times, there is always someone watching sports somewhere. So the industry can't stop for a second; it must keep going.
Tune in and learn how to take the maximum out of every volunteering opportunity, how young people can add value using social media, and more.
