Title: Videographer & Storyteller Intern - Skyhawks Sports (Treasure Valley)
Some of the most meaningful moments in the Treasure Valley happen on our fields every week. A shy kid making a first friend. A coach speaking belief into a child who has never had someone believe in them. A parent watching their son or daughter light up. We need someone to capture those stories.
