Fairfield University students in the Charles F. Dolan School of Business and the John Charles Meditz College of Arts & Sciences visited Major League Baseball’s New York City headquarters on Dec. 3, 2025, for an inside look at how MLB operates.
During the visit, students met with six Fairfield alumni: Courtney Coppotelli ’02, vice president, partnership activation; Patrick Lawler ’18, account executive, sponsorship & media sales; Bryan Wrabel ’12, account executive; Dan Weber ’11, manager, strategic planning (sponsorship); Brielle Nesto ’20, senior coordinator, partnership activation; and Martin Montalto ’01, senior coordinating producer, MLB Network.
The Fairfield alumni provided a detailed look at how their teams collaborate to bring MLB initiatives to life, from building and managing corporate partnerships to shaping long-term league strategy, developing new business opportunities, and creating content that reaches fans worldwide in a data-driven world.
“Hearing Fairfield alumni speak so openly about their work in partnerships, activation, strategy, and production gave us such an authentic look into the industry,” said Gianna Greco, a senior marketing and finance major.
