Mia Padula
Public Relations & Sports Studies and Legal Studies Â
Hi, I’m Mia Padula, a Public Relations major with minors in Legal Studies and Sports Studies at Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island. Throughout my time at Roger Williams, I’ve built hands-on leadership experience through roles in the Inter-Class Council, as a Peer Mentor, in Student Accessibility Services, and as an Orientation Advisor. These opportunities have strengthened my ability to lead, collaborate, and support others in a team environment.
Beyond the classroom and internships, I’m especially inspired by advancing opportunities for women in sports. I’ve also discovered a love for coaching, which reflects my drive to encourage and support people of all ages.
Internship Experience
I recently completed an internship at the International Tennis Hall of Fame as a Tournament Intern, where I worked directly with ticket holders, managed ticket sales, created credentials, recruited volunteers, and supported tournament and Induction Celebration operations. This experience deepened my passion for pursuing a career in sports, particularly in public relations, marketing, broadcasting, and sports agency.
