San Diego Wave Fútbol Club announced today the addition of Laura Wolf Stein to the club’s executive team where she will serve as Vice President of Marketing, reporting directly to club president Jill Ellis.

“We are so excited to welcome Laura to the team, she will bring a wealth of experience and leadership to Wave FC,” said Wave FC president Jill Ellis. “Laura’s energy and passion was evident from our first meeting and her strong connection to the community is an incredible positive.”
As a So-Cal native, a long-time San Diego local, and a sports business leader with experience in women’s soccer, Laura’s leadership will help connect San Diego to Wave FC to build something extraordinary together.
