    In the first episode, host Amie Sheridan sits down with  manager of football administration for the Atlanta Falcons Kirsten Grohs to talk about life in the front office, her unique career path and how Ohio University’s  MSA/PMSA program provided her with the tools she needed to excel in her career.
