Danny Ottiger

Hi, I’m Danny Ottiger, a Sport Management student at the University of Michigan with a focus on the intersection of sports, marketing, and creative media. Through my experience with Michigan Athletics, I have gained hands-on experience supporting a Division I, national championship winning program through photography, graphic design, videography, and recruiting-related creative projects. This experience has given me a firsthand understanding of the collaboration, professionalism, and attention to detail required to work in the sports industry.

I have developed a diverse creative skill set through my work as a photographer, graphic designer, and videographer. My portfolio includes visual content created for Michigan, Northeast Ohio high school programs, and 50+ individual clients. These experiences have strengthened my ability to communicate through visual storytelling while working within the fast-paced and collaborative environments of sports media.

Outside of my professional experiences, I continue to develop my leadership, communication, and teamwork skills through involvement at the University of Michigan. My academic and extracurricular experiences have allowed me to build a strong foundation in sport business while exploring my interests in marketing, creative content, and front-office operations. I am focused on pursuing a career in the sports industry where I can combine my creative background with my education in Sport Management to help organizations build their brands and connect with athletes and fans.
