Leading Ladies Of Sports Broadcasting #11

And now the final card in the series.  Maybe I'll make a checklist for fun.

I don't watch a lot of NFL Network because I see a lot of it being just hype and rhetoric to support the few teams that they seem to favor all the time.  But every now and then I'll tune in, especially when I see this analytics angel.

Cynthia Frelund was born and raised in Okemos, Michigan.  I still can't believe she's almost 40 years old.

She got her BS degree in Biology in 2005, then moved right on to Northwestern for a Masters in Predictive Analytics and an MBA in Entrepreneurship, Marketing and Finance.  That's quite a foundation.  She's like the Numbers Geek's Dream Girl.

She worked at the NFL in Finance Strategy a couple years after a stint as a Financial Analyst for a private company.  Then went to Disney/ABC Television, not in front of the cameras, but in Business Development.

Then in 2012, Cynthia moved to ESPN as an Associate Director of Technology Development.  She later became a Producer of Next Generation Content, and finally got on screen as their Predictive Analytics Analyst in 2015.

In 2016, she came back to the NFL to her current roles as Predictive Analytics Expert on Gameday Morning, Fantasy Live, and podcast Game Theory and Money.

Frelund keeps in shape by running marathons (20 so far) and teaching Pilates classes, including at her own facilty.  She's involved with Bright Pink, a non-profit that aids women in the prevention and early detection of breast cancer.  She's also an animal lover and includes pics of her beloved bulldog Bodhi on her Instagram.

There is little information about her personal life on her social media pages.  She's very private about that.  All this and maybe single too?
