What I do
Three jobs in one foam suit.
The role isn't just dancing on a baseline. It's hype, ambassadorship, and outreach — often all in the same afternoon.
Brand ambassadorship
Anchor the #BearcatPride social campaign — credited with a 47% YoY lift in athletics engagement.
Community outreach
Reading buddy in 50+ NYC public school classrooms a year, and a familiar face at Gramercy ribbon-cuttings.
