VOLUSIA/FLAGLER COUNTIES, November 13, 2017 On Nov. 3, Anna Donaldson, assistant director of sports marketing at Florida Hospital, visited Indian Trails Middle School in Palm Coast.
She spoke to several hundred students explaining the real-world correlation between racing cars and NASCAR to the students' current science curriculum.
Focusing on aerodynamics and the science of speed, Donaldson shared how the sport has evolved.
It is much more specialized and there are more entry points for various job opportunities for those interested in working in the industry. There are also more woman working in the sport, and I am an example of that, Donaldson said. The decisions you make now will set you up for what's to come.
In her role as assistant director of sports marketing, Donaldson oversees Florida Hospitals partnerships with the Daytona International Speedway and International Speedway Corporation. She has a wealth of sports marketing experience and previously served as senior marketing manager at Michael Waltrip Racing (MWR).
