\u201cThe one thing I love about working at this level of baseball is the fact that you gain experience in everything from ballpark operations to ticket sales and marketing,\u201d de Vries said. \u201cI am ready to learn and contribute to this fantastic organization.\u201d<\/p>\n
As a graduate of Chapman University, de Vries accomplished a degree in Communication Studies. At Chapman she worked with the athletics department for four years as the Sports Information Student Assistant and served as the PA Announcer for all sports. During her time in college, de Vries interned with the Los Angeles Clippers Public Relations department for two seasons. When not at the ballpark, she loves to run, hangout with her family, and support the Angels! ![\"\"](\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/wisconsin-rapids-rafters\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2020\/10\/Hannah-Head-Shot-01-700x700.jpg\")

De Vries joins Hannah Jurgens, Assistant General Manager, on the Rafters staff. Jurgens is going on her fourth season with the Rafters. With two females and one male, the Rafters front office is officially female dominated. This marks the first female dominated front office in the organization\u2019s history, as well as Northwoods League history.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a huge milestone! Not only within our organization and the Northwoods League, but for all women in sports,\u201d Jurgens stated. \u201cIt\u2019s just a small step to breaking down barriers in a male dominated industry, but it\u2019s a step. I hope to inspire the next girl who has dreams of working in sports.\u201d<\/p>\n
