southern Indiana

Hi there, I'm Trista and I have a passion for the written word and the beautiful game.

I am currently an advertising representative for two southern Indiana papers, Perry County News and Spencer County Journal Democrat. Before taking this position in Oct. 2013, I was the feature writer and reporter for Perry County News for five years. In 2012, I earned second place in the best sports feature category from the Hoosier State Press Association Foundation.

Currenly, I am a writer for 'Dash On,' a part of Dyanmo Theory - a SB Nation blog covering the MLS team Houston Dynamo, and the NWSL team Houston Dash. I write recaps and previews of Houston Dash games, as well as opinion pieces on the team and its players.

From 2009 to 2013, I was the editor and a contributor to Aerys Soccer, a division of Aerys Sports network. I wrote about the Columbus Crew, the USMNT and was the host of the soccer podcast 'Chicks & Free Kicks.' For about two years, I volunteered time as a PR and Communications writer for Evansville Crush semi-professional indoor soccer team.
