I worked for A. Smith & Co. as a story producer in post on the College-themed spinoff of Team Ninja Warrior, which aired on Esquire Network in fall of 2016. Instead of featuring athletes commonly seen on American Ninja Warrior and Team Ninja Warrior, this show featured college students competing on behalf of their schools. Read about it here on ESPN!
