Jaime is setting the new standard in intelligence, from the optimal distribution of hot dogs in arenas and predicting daily attendance to using technology to enhance guest experience across all touchpoints. In 2015, Jaime was named one of Sports Business Journal’s Women Game Changers in Sports, and named to SBJ’s 40 Under 40 list in 2016.
Jaime’s love of data sprang from an early project estimating the potential future earnings of an NBA player who had been injured. Immersing herself in the stats and building models she discovered a passion for blending analytics with professional sports.
