About

Hi! My name is Olivia Statile and I currently work in marketing for the Washington Commanders. I occasionally take photos at Commanders events - not really a requirement of the job, but more of a passion project. I created this site to showcase some of my favorite photos and digital projects over the years. Here’s a little bit of info about me from my 24 years of life so far…

Things I’ve done -

  • 2016 - 2018: Team Manager and Photographer for the Simsbury High School Men’s Basketball Team during my sophomore, junior, and senior years of high school

  • July 2018: Selected to join a National Geographic Student Expedition in Iceland to learn about photography while driving around the Golden Circle with a National Geographic photographer

  • August 2021 - May 2022: Sports Marketing and Photography Intern for Dickinson College’s Athletic Department across all NCAA Division III athletic teams on campus during my senior year of college

  • July 2022 - May 2023: Marketing Intern for the Washington Commanders

  • June 2023 - Present: Marketing Coordinator for the Washington Commanders

Places I’ve lived -

  • Simsbury, CT - born and raised (2000-2018)

  • Carlisle, PA - attended Dickinson College with a double major in International Business & Management and Spanish (2018-2022)

  • Málaga, Spain - studied abroad during my sophomore year of college (2020)

Despite having taken an entry-level photography course in high school and college, I am self-taught when it comes to the world of sports photography. I love taking photos whenever possible to keep learning and growing.

These are some of my photos and digital projects! Thanks for looking.
