BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE, FLORIDA – Florida Tech Director of Athletics Jamie Joss has announced Christina Hardman’s promotion to Associate Athletic Director for Communications.

“I have had the pleasure of Christina’s dedication to providing excellent athletic communications service to scholar-athletes, coaches, and fans for the past year at Florida Tech and her two years at West Liberty,” Joss said.

“She is a rising star in this industry. We are excited for the vision and commitment to elevate the scholar-athlete and fan experience in engaging with our athletic programs.”
