@kiambufentress
Sports and entertainment marketing leader driving sponsorships, live events, and digital campaigns.
What I'm looking for
I’m a sports and entertainment marketing professional with experience executing sponsorship activations, live events, and digital campaigns. I’ve led planning and execution of branded, on-site initiatives and served as the primary point of contact between athletes, brand partners, venues, and production teams to deliver seamless, brand-aligned experiences.
I also bring strong partnership and performance instincts—managing sponsorship relationships, coordinating integrated marketing campaigns, and tracking results across digital channels (including 6.2M+ total views and 2.1M+ impressions). Beyond marketing, I’ve built operational and player-development experience through director-level facility operations and Major League Baseball player development operations, and I continue to develop through leadership and entrepreneurial mentorship programs.
