“After I enrolled in the Master of Sport Business and Integrity
at VU, I planned to finish the course while working in finance,
and then change career into sports. However, after first
semester, I saw the perfect job advertised at the AFL, so I
applied and was offered the role.

So while completing the course, I was also gaining experience
working in the industry. I believe working in the industry
while finishing my degree had tremendous value. I’ve since
