I’m Sophie Rottenberg, a graphic designer and visual communicator from the Boston area, currently studying Visual Communications on the Graphic Design track at Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications.

My focus is sports design — the fast-paced, high-stakes world of visual storytelling that lives inside broadcast, social, and live events, where you have seconds (not minutes) to capture a moment before the scroll moves on. This past summer, I interned in Digital Media at Fox Sports in NYC, producing content for First Things First, including 85+ same-day short-form videos covering the NBA, NFL, and the 2026 FIFA World Cup — generating 40M+ views across Instagram and TikTok, including 6 videos surpassing 1M views, and one that hit 14M+ views on Instagram and 2.7M on TikTok. That experience changed how I think about design: speed and craft aren’t in tension, they’re the job. Every graphic, template, and edit had to hold up inside a live broadcast environment while still stopping someone mid-scroll.

I’m equally drawn to typography, motion, layout, and branding — and how they work together to tell a story, whether that’s a broadcast graphic, a social post, or an entire brand system. I learn best by doing, thrive in collaborative environments, and treat every project as a chance to push past what I thought was possible with it.

If you’re working at the intersection of sports, media, and design, I’d love to connect.
