The Sustainable Sport Index (SSI) is a first-of-its-kind initiative, using self-reported survey data to analyze the environmental and social practices of professional, minor league, and collegiate sports venues to produce an anonymized benchmarking report. Its mission is to advance environmental and social sustainability practices in the sports industry by establishing industry benchmarks, sharing best practices, and fostering peer collaboration.

As project manager of this report, I have supported our team to:

• Recruit nearly half of US major league sports venues for participation in the SSI survey and report

• Earn multiple features in Forbes for benchmarking report and overall thought leadership

• Develop content and project manage the creation of a concise and compelling benchmarking report, a 75 page document based on over 150 questions' worth of survey data
