Currently in my final year of the Master’s program in STAPS Sport Management, specializing in International Sport Administration at Lille, I am writing to apply for an internship in the Event Management sector at World Aquatics. My decision to apply stems from my desire to put into practice the skills acquired during my studies, my passion for water sports, and my eagerness to contribute to the success of your projects. My academic journey demonstrates my commitment and passion for sports, as well as my rigor and ability to perform in demanding environments. After obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Applied Foreign Languages from the University of Lille with an average of 15.1 in my first year and being the top of my class in the second year with an average of 15.2, I continued my studies through a one-year Erasmus exchange program in Bari, Italy. This experience was academically successful, with an average of 16, and allowed me to strengthen my level of Italian and develop an international perspective. Now, in my final year of the Master’s program in STAPS Sport Management, where I was the top of my class in the first year, I am consolidating my skills in sports management, specializing in event management, communication, and marketing. A strong passion for languages drives me; I am bilingual in Italian, have a C1 level in English and Spanish, and an A1 level in Dutch. These diverse language skills provide me with valuable versatility and will be a major asset. My professional experiences at Decathlon, including a 5-month internship as a department manager in Seville Center (Spain) and as a sales advisor at Decathlon Campus (France), have allowed me to develop my versatility, autonomy, and ability to work in a team, crucial skills in the professional world. During this internship, I was responsible for writing the commercial policy for the water sports department and managing a team of 6 people, while also improving my Spanish skills. My commitment as a volunteer at my Triathlon Club in Liévin since a young age reflects my passion for sports and my willingness to contribute to the success of sporting events. I have recently expanded my responsibilities by heading the communication department and participating in the logistics and preparation of major international events such as the European Cup and the World Indoor Triathlon Championship. My passion for sports, particularly swimming, extends beyond my studies. Since adolescence, I have been involved in a triathlon sports section and a swimming club, accumulating up to 18 hours of sport per week. This experience has allowed me to compete in the World Championships and several French Championships, demonstrating my perseverance, discipline, and ability to excel in high-level competitions. Convinced that my dynamic and versatile profile, with an international dimension, would be of interest for an internship in the Event Management sector at World Aquatics, I am available for an interview to discuss my application further.   Please accept, Sir/Madam, the expression of my highest regards. Sincerely, Nina Lazzari

My name is Madeline McKim (Maddie), and I am a recent graduate from Loyola Marymount University. Growing up in a military family, I moved often and had a wide variety of life and swimming experiences, including learning from many coaches and connecting with many teams. It is as a result of these opportunities that I developed a fondness for the competitive swimming industry. My experience with swimming taught me how integral athletic activities are for the well being of individuals and the development of important life skills, such as adaptability and collaboration. In high school, I worked as a summer swim instructor, and during my first year of college, while I was home due to school covid-19 closures, I worked as an Age Group/Pre-Team coach with my previous club. It was in these positions I learned about coaching and the organization of athletics. While pursuing my degree at LMU, I worked as a private swim instructor and a lifeguard to continue learning more about coaching and athletic management. In Spring of 2024, I graduated with Summa Cum Laude and a bachelor's degree in communication studies and a minor in business administration. Connecting the studies of communication within organizations and the investigation of management and business goals, I intend to utilize both fields of study to grow within my career in athletics.

I have taught several age groups in swimming, coached, and taught hydrofit classes.  My experience doing IEPs and my experience filing insurance during my twenty years I worked as an optician have lead me to be detail oriented when analyzing data. My personal all time favorite enjoyment is swimming.  I enjoy swimming for fitness, and I completed my first sprint triathlon a few years ago.  I love teaching children to swim, and I have the knowledge to be precise with the mechanics of swimming when such  specific detail is needed for a lesson.
