Hi! I'm Matan
Hi! I’m Matan Coll, a December 2025 grad in the University of Colorado Boulder’s Leeds School of Business, majoring in Operations Management with a minor in Sports Media. For the past three years, I’ve worked as a Digital Content Intern with CU Athletics, most recently leading social strategy for Colorado Skiing. During the 2023–24 season, under my leadership, the account saw a 90% growth in followers and over 3.3 million post impressions. Outside of sports, I’m a proud Eagle Scout and have spent the past four summers working at a Scout camp, now serving as a Camp Commissioner.
Since I was young, I’ve approached life with a 110% mentality—giving my all, tackling challenges head-on, and always maintaining a positive, work-first mindset. Whether in the classroom or on the ground at live events, I bring energy, focus, and a deep sense of pride to everything I do. This approach continues to fuel my personal and professional growth as I build a career rooted in passion, purpose, and meaningful positive impact on others.

Project Overview:
Tasked with creating a 7–12 minute video for the CU Ski Team’s 2025 end-of-season banquet, my goal was to produce a piece that allowed the seniors to reflect on their time at CU, the highs, lows, and everything in between. The video aimed to capture the spirit of the team, the memories forged on and off the snow, and the emotional depth of their shared journey.

A special highlight of the project was telling the storybook ending of Jacob Dilling’s victory, on the one-year anniversary of his father’s passing.
