MATT SOCHOVKA
Hello
I'm Matthew Sochovka, and I'm a dedicated professional with a passion for strategic communication, sports marketing, and athlete representation. With a Bachelor of Arts in Digital Communications and Multimedia from Furman University, followed by a Master's in Strategic Design, I've honed my skills in leveraging digital platforms to engage audiences and drive brand success.
​
My Story
My Furman journey wasn't just academic; it was also athletic. As a starting award-winning Defensive Tackle and two-year Team Captain for the Paladin football team, I balanced rigorous training and competition with a full class load and simultaneously embodied the values of teamwork, leadership, and perseverance.
Off the field, I was actively involved in community service and volunteered with local organizations such as Harvest Hope Food Pantry and Prisma Health Children's Hospital.
​
My professional experience includes internships at Furman University's Parent Engagement Office and Sports Marketing Department, where I further refined my skills in marketing strategy, customer relationship management, and sales analysis.
Currently, I'm an intern at First Class Prospects, where I specialize in athlete recruitment coordination, endorsement negotiations, and client relationship management.
Throughout my academic and professional experiences, I've demonstrated a commitment to excellence, integrity, and continuous learning. With strong communication skills, strategic thinking, technical capabilities with digital and design platforms, and a genuine passion for sports and marketing, I'm excited to make an even more profound impact in the dynamic world of sports business.
