WFUV 90.7 FM is a noncommercial, member-supported public media service of Fordham University. It has gained prominence for its unique combination of music, award-winning news, and iconic sports programming delivered over the radio.
While at Fordham, I joined WFUV Sports, transitioning from a trainee to the Video Coordinator, and ultimately, Sports Manager. Alongside the role’s managerial responsibilities, I led the department’s surge in digital production and its transition from the sports hiatus of the COVID-19 Pandemic to a new hybrid programming model.
Launched new digital streaming
After devising a way to stream One on One, New York’s Longest-Running Sports Call-In Show, virtually during the pandemic, we adopted a hybrid model for our return to studio, and instituted new streamed shows and podcast video recordings.

Established a cohesive digital presence
Created a refreshed brand identity across all social channels, and consistent presentation of online and radio broadcasts.
- New primary logo and font package
- Refreshed podcast logos and audio intros
- Expansive collection of audio promotions
- Canva templates for social graphics
Included here is an audiogram, a compilation of broadcast calls packaged with a graphic. I created a variety of unique designs to quickly distribute following a Fordham Athletics gameday.
Growth of YouTube channel
Building on the success of online streaming, we established a weekly cadence of YouTube posts, which included interviews, talk show segments, beat reporting and remotes. This work grew a previously dormant YouTube page to 1,000 subscribers.
Getting creative
One particular highlight was “Dylan takes the field with Fordham Softball,” a remote produced in collaboration with Fordham Softball. I was responsible for the coordination, filming and editing of this project.
