A lifelong sports enthusiast, Hunter brings passion and dedication to the Down East Bird Dawgs as an Account Manager in Tickets and Sales. His love for sports began early through playing baseball, and it has only grown stronger over the years, especially as a devoted fan of hockey and frequent attendee of Carolina Hurricanes games.

Hunter graduated from North Lenoir High School before earning his associate degree at Lenoir Community College. He continued his education at North Carolina State University, where he studied Sports Management and graduated in the spring of 2025.

During the inaugural season of the Down East Bird Dawgs, Hunter began his journey with the team as an intern, gaining hands-on experience and contributing to the team's foundational success. Now, as a full-time member of the front office, he's excited to continue connecting fans to the game and growing the Bird Dawgs presence in the community.
