Sophia Sabedra has been with SJSU since September 2021. Currently, she is the media contact for swimming and men’s and women’s water polo. She started working for the athletic department as a facilities intern before becoming the second Lawrence Fan Media Relations Intern in October of 2022.
A native of Fremont, California, Sabedra chose to attend SJSU after high school because it was her parent's alma mater. As a first-year student, she worked the desk for the water polo teams under Lawrence Fan before officially joining the department as a facilities intern in the fall of 2021.
Sabedra also gained experience as an event coordinator for the SAP center where she put on numerous concerts and sharks games. Some of the artists she worked for include Dua Lipa, Kevin Hart, and Harry Styles.
In her free time, Sabedra likes to explore new places, watch sports games, go to concerts, and work out.
