In addition to adidas, Bass spent the first decade of her career leading national sports marketing campaigns for Nike and Converse, where she built campaigns that revolutionized the industry and empowered underrepresented athletes.

Bass continues to pursue her goal of infusing equitable opportunities and inclusivity across the athletic spectrum.
