Hello all. My name is Stephen Lebitsch, I am a native of New York, a graduate of the Class of 2021 at Fordham University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications and minor in Sports Journalism, and currently a contributing writer at On SI and FanSided, two networks of hyper-focused, localized team sites for the Sports Illustrated and Minute Media brands. My professional byline extends back to my alma mater’s journal of record, the Fordham Ram, and has since touched various outlets including Empire Writes Back, New York Giants on SI (formerly Giants Country), Sportskeeda, and Talking Points Sports. As a young sports media professional yearning for a full-time career in the industry, I additionally have knowledge and interests in communications, marketing, public relations and social media, areas where I strongly believe my skills and background can thrive in any opportunity.

All of my work samples, academic projects, and more can be found here on my portfolio, along with my contact information. As I continue to grow my career, add the latest valuable skills and seek new opportunities within the industry, I welcome chances to network with fellow industry professionals and sports enthusiasts eager to develop relationships that will serve as the valuable catalysts towards the next level of the space.
