I am excited to announce that John Cunningham has joined the Chicago team as a regional director. John (’18, ’20 M.Ed) was born in South Bend, but after various moves during his childhood, his family has called Chapel Hill, North Carolina home for the last twelve years.

While a student at Notre Dame, John worked as a manager for the men’s basketball program under Coach Mike Brey. After graduation John taught middle school social studies for two years at Our Lady of Sorrows School in McAllen, Texas, as part of the ACE Teaching Fellows Program.

After a stint working with the Advancement Team at Saint Joseph High School in South Bend, John was the Facility Operations Manager for the Kansas City Current, a soccer team in the NWSL, for the past two years. John joined the KC Current during its inaugural season in 2021 and worked on a number of projects including the building process of the team’s training facility.

John has always been around sports, and enjoys playing and watching any game and spending time with family and friends.

His first day in the office is Wednesday, March 29.
