The Coastal Carolinas Network
The coasts of the Carolinas offer a picturesque backdrop with unmatched sunrises. They also offer a tremendous opportunity for alumni, parents, students and friends to connect in the form of over 300 DU constituents looking to network! The Coastal Carolinas Network hosts a wide variety of events for new graduates and seasoned professionals alike through sports watch parties and an annual Day of Service. The Coastal Carolinas Network is eager to connect with you and is open to anyone eager to connect through and to DU.

Meet Matt Isaia
Hello DU Carolina Coasters! I earned my bachelor’s degree in Mass Communications and Digital Media Studies from the University of Denver and am a Dish Media Sales Account Executive, focused on both Dish & Sling TV direct and biddable advertising sales. I am responsible for some of Dish Media’s key holding company account partnerships and works closely with media agency teams across all facets of Advanced TV. I was part of the Dish Media sales team to unveil Sling TV to the media community and shape the platform’s go-to-market offering and solutions. I currently reside in South Carolina with my wife, two kids, and schnoodle Leo. I look forward to connecting with you!
