Wrestling with Success: Yarneris Rosa and the WWE
Meet Yaneris Rosa, Vice President of Business and Legal Affairs at WWE and a trailblazer in sports entertainment.
Yaneris shares her inspiring story from growing up in the Dominican Republic and then Long Island, NY, to attending Cornell University as a first-generation student, and ultimately earning a degree from Harvard Law School!
She has a remarkable career path, including her time at startups, Fortune 100 and 500 companies, and tells us how she brought innovation to WWE during the pandemic with the creation of the WWE Thunderdome (in record time).
Yaneris reflects on her transformative experiences at Cornell, her commitment to diversity and inclusion, and her recent recognition with the Latinos in Sports Global Players Award!!
Plus, we pitch our own WWE Superstars—complete with theme songs and signature moves—to see if we’ve got what it takes to wrestle! Can you guess what our Superstars' names are? We've dropped hints in many episodes. Check out our instagram for the photos.
She's besties with Brenda Bricker and we loved every minute with Yaneris. You will too.
