She and her husband, Kevin, own and operate both Rader Media Sports LLC. and Rader Media and Marketing. They reside in Linton, Indiana.
She was a coach’s daughter as her father, Terry Graves, was a longtime basketball / baseball / track coach for Worthington-Jefferson High School (prior to consolidation into White River Valley).
She obtained her Bachelor of Communications degree from the University of Southern Indiana with an emphasis in public relations and marketing. She also holds minors in photography, human resources and advertising. She worked in the public sector (marketing) from 1997-2003.

GRAPHICS DESIGN :: One of a Kind Production
I do not use a cookie cutter design when a live stream is produced. The graphics you see on screen have been hand designed to give
the Rader Media Sports Team a unique look.
From banners, scoreboard implementation, school logos, commercials, and team photos/videos - this is not simply a JOB to me. This IS my passion.
SPONSORS :: Working with YOU
I will work together to create a professional graphic for use during the production.
Photos and Videos of your business will also capture your uniqueness shining a spotlight on your brand.
