Michael Benedetto
Team Oriented Worker
Internal Operations and Administrative Intern at University of Michigan Athletic Department
Background
I have a passion for athletics and have multiple years of experience working in division 1 athletics. This has allowed me to excel in competitive, team oriented environments. My education in sport management and experience working in business development at Oracle have given me the necessary skills and experience to work in athletics as well as in sales and business operations roles. I enjoy staying active in my free time playing tennis or by hiking on vacations. I love to learn and enjoy reading books, both fiction and non-fiction, especially those involving world history.
