Georgia Giblin always knew she would work in sports.
Growing up in Geelong, southeast of Melbourne in Australia, Giblin had long been fascinated by the sports science and technology boom taking place across professional athletics.
“I wasn’t specifically looking to get into baseball,” Giblin said. “I was more so looking just to get into professional sports in the United States.”
Giblin immersed herself in the Australian Olympic sports system, working with track and field, archery, water polo and triathlon athletes.
“In the lead-up to the 2020 Olympics, I started working with our national softball team and really enjoyed that,” Giblin said. “I certainly wasn’t looking to get into baseball.
“It just so happened that baseball is going through this tech boom right now, and biomechanics and sports science are a big part of that. So it was just really good timing for me.”
