David Myckowiak ('15)

Video Coordinator for Vanderbilt Women's Basketball

David attended Detroit Waldorf School through 8th grade and decided to extend his Waldorf education through high school at RSSAA. He immersed himself in the sports opportunities in high school and found a passion for basketball. As an undergrad in the residential college at MSU, David gravitated towards the basketball program and became the student manager for women’s basketball while pursuing a Communications major and German minor. As a senior in 2018-19, he served as the head manager and the program’s interim video coordinator while the Spartans reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament as a No. 9 seed.

Professional relationships he built during this time lead him to Missouri State where he balanced getting a masters in Sports Management and video coordinator for the women’s basketball team.  David has found that his ability to cultivate relationships and a diligent work ethic has helped him navigate his career path. His experience in a non-traditional school like RSSAA and DWS set him up to appreciate his non-traditional work environment. The real teamwork that happens at work is especially fulfilling. He is now the video coordinator for Vanderbilt’s women’s basketball team and loving it.
