James is currently an Account Services Associate at Under Armour. UA has one mission: to make you better. The Brand was created in 1996 when University of Maryland special teams captain Kevin Plank looked down at his heavy, sweaty cotton T-shirt and thought: there has got to be something better. So, he made a T-shirt that keeps you cool, light, and dry, so you can push yourself further. Today, UA makes a lot more than performance T-shirts—shoes that make you faster, gear that takes on the elements, digital tools to help you get healthier—but that commitment to innovation still lies at the heart of everything UA does. In this episode, James shares the lessons he learned while working various part-time roles in college. He also elaborates on the importance of networking, and what he does within UA.
