This week on the Nerd we talk to Ally Redig - the founder of Athlete Relations. With a background in Sports Management and Public Relations, over the last 10 years, she has provided Athlete Relations services to hundreds of athletes and sports personalities. Her commitment to making her clients' lives easier, less stressful, and quite simply more fun, is unmatched. She has been nicknamed The Plug because of her infinite amount of connections and relationships across multiple industries, which she utilizes to benefit her clients.
Our featured charity this week is Mothers Against Drunk Driving, a well-known organization whose mission is to end drunk driving, help fight drugged driving, support the victims of these violent crimes, and prevent underage drinking.
We talk about Ally’s background and her work at Athlete Relations, including the services she offers and some of her most notable experiences. Ally shares what it’s like working with free agents and rookies, arranging weddings for star players, and what day-to-day life is like for her during the season. She goes into her team fandom (unfortunately, it’s not The Bills), her trail-blazing personality, what the future of Athlete Relations looks like, and her experiences of being there for moments with players that most fans can only dream of.
