Lachlan Nelson
Summary
I am currently studying a Bachelor or Communications and Sports Media at the University of Canberra. I have a strong and keen interest in the area of Sports Management, Administration and Sports Media. I have a passion for Rugby Union and have played at the club level since I was a junior. I played opens rugby at school, coached juniors and I also created, built and managed the Riverview Rugby Media channel which is still going strong today.
With demonstrated leadership qualities and a desire to use media and content to create an environment that is able to inspire and influence, my short term goal is to work in the area of rugby administration and media to gain as much experience as I can while I study part time. My long term goal is to become an integral part of an sports administration team that contributes to the long term success of the game.
