Andrew Allsman

Sports Journalist
Maryville, IL
Currently, I am a free agent looking for a new opportunity. For five seasons I covered the NHL's St. Louis Blues for KMOV in St. Louis, MO. As a beat reporter, I provided online coverage of the team which also appeared on KMOV's mobile app. That coverage included breaking news, developing sources, writing features and providing daily updates for readers. I studied mass communication (journalism) and public relations at SIUE.

My name is Andrew Allsman. I come from the small, rural town of Alhambra, IL. I have lived there all of my life and for the past four years, I have attended Southern Illinois University Edwardsville where I am pursuing a double-major in mass communications and public relations. I have been blessed with a great and caring family, as well as great friends. I also have been very lucky career-wise, as I pursue what I believe is the greatest job in the world, which is sports writing. In 2011, I was hired by KMOV in St. Louis, MO to cover the National Hockey League's St. Louis Blues. It was a great opportunity and it opened my eyes to what I really wanted to do with my life. Since being hired by KMOV to provide stories, I have had my work featured on NBC's prohockeytalk.com , and have been overwhelmed by the opportunity and how lucky I was to receive it. While attending SIUE, I will be searching for as many career opportunities as possible. If interested in my services, please feel free to contact me.
