Gail Dent is associate director of public and media relations at the NCAA headquarters in Indianapolis, where she works with national media and focuses on communications surrounding NCAA issues and programs. She has been with the NCAA for 11 years.
Previously, she worked for the U.S. Olympic Committee and the athletics communications department at the University of Kentucky, where she earned her master’s.
This month, the NCAA is in the spotlight because of the Men's Division I Basketball Championship, known as March Madness.
“[The tournament] provides us with a terrific platform to share student-athlete success stories and to educate the public on who the NCAA is through a variety of communication platforms,” the Louisville, Ky., native says. “During March Madness, you hear more stories about former student-athletes who have earned their degrees and are now CEOs, educators, doctors, entrepreneurs and major contributors to society.”
