From “Seventeen”, Morales then gained a job with Nike, writing content for their website. The company is the largest supplier of athletic shoes and apparel in the world, while also involved in the creation of sports equipment. It is ranked 89th during the 2018 Fortune 500 list of largest US corporations by revenue.

The company started out as a publication owned by the National Geographic Society which began in 1888, and contains discussions about culture, science geography and history.

Recent Work
Eventually, Sarina would join the major sports television network Entertainment and Sports Programming Network (ESPN), which is considered one of the most successful sports networks in the world, despite some criticism of its programming.

The program features sports highlights of the day, along with reviews, updates, commentary, and feature segments from all over the sporting world, broadcast from studio facilities in Los Angeles, California, and Bristol, Connecticut. Aside from her broadcasts, Morales also served as a part of the social media team of ESPN in a similar role she had when working with National Geographic.
