#KeepinIt100

Meet Leslie Diaz, a senior majoring in legal studies with a minor in international business!

Leslie has been building a strong foundation at the intersection of business and law, recently interning with Inter Miami CF in the Partnership Development department. There, she contributed to sponsorship strategies, coordinated PR packages for key stakeholders, and helped bring brand activations to life during game-day experiences.

The internship gave her a front-row seat to how business deals and relationships drive the world of sports – an experience that has shaped her career goals moving forward.

She credits the Toppel Career Center for helping her feel confident and career-ready. Through career coaching and networking events, Toppel has been a consistent resource in guiding her professional journey.

Piece of Advice:

"Say yes to opportunities that push you—even if they feel a little intimidating. Some of the best experiences come from putting yourself out there and figuring it out along the way."
