BIO

Blessed with a life surrounded by palm trees and "Florida Man" headlines, I was born in Martin Memorial Hospital in Stuart, Florida, on March 24, 1998.
My parents, Mary Jo and Robert Ahlum, raised me and my younger sibling, Matthew, in Port Saint Lucie.
An avid Panthers, Heat, Marlins and Dolphins fan, I set a goal to one day working for one of the teams I idolized as a child.
I achieved my goal in December 2019 when the Dolphins brought me in as their Digital Content Assistant. In the time spent with the organization, I experienced a transition into a new department within the team, and learned about marketing — with little prior knowledge of the field — through the COVID-19 global pandemic.
In my free time, I enjoy playing video games with friends, including Overwatch, Fall Guys and single player stories. I also have fun playing golf (horribly), cooking, and traveling when possible.
