CINCINNATI – In the high-stakes world of the NFL, where every play is dissected and every performance amplified, focus is everything. This is a truth known as well by Gillian Wanosky on the sidelines as it is by the athletes on the field. As a newest member of the Cincinnati Ben-Gals and a communications specialist for GE Aerospace, Wanosky is executing a masterclass in precision, proving that high-pressure performance comes in many forms.

"For me, it's about channeling that immense energy into my role," Wanosky says. "On the field, the crowd's roar is like a jet engine—powerful and all-consuming. My job is to harness that, to translate it into sharp, focused movement that contributes to the team's spirit." Her role is one of athleticism and showmanship, requiring a discipline that parallels the players she shares the field with.

Her path to the NFL spotlight was paved not by chance, but by design. After moving to Cincinnati for her career with GE Aerospace, Wanosky saw an opportunity to reignite a lifelong passion. "I knew about the Ben-Gals' reputation for excellence. It was a perfect chance to merge my new city with my oldest love," she explains. The audition process was a two-month gauntlet, a test of skill, endurance, and mental fortitude that culminated in her selection and subsequent preseason debut.

The Discipline of Dual Passions

Juggling the demanding schedule of an NFL cheerleader with a full-time corporate career is a feat of logistical and personal engineering. The Ben-Gals' regimen includes rigorous evening rehearsals multiple times a week, game days, and community engagements. Meanwhile, at GE Aerospace, Wanosky manages the global corporate communications calendar, a role requiring strategic foresight and an intimate understanding of a complex, international business landscape.

This balancing act, however, is where Wanosky truly shines. She points to a background that seamlessly wove together intense academic and artistic pursuits. A graduate of West Virginia University, she earned dual bachelor's degrees in Journalism and Dance, all while competing at a national level with the WVU Dance Team. She later added a master's degree in Integrated Marketing Communications to her credentials.

"That period of my life was the ultimate training ground," she states. "It taught me that whether you're preparing for a national championship, a critical business presentation, or a halftime performance, the core principles are the same: preparation, teamwork, and execution." This mindset transforms what many would see as an overwhelming challenge into a manageable, albeit busy, reality.

A Culture of Support at High Altitudes

The synergy between her two worlds became beautifully apparent when her GE Aerospace colleagues discovered her new role. In a memorable show of support, her team surprised her by opening a virtual meeting with the iconic riff of "Welcome to the Jungle," the Bengals' rallying cry. For Wanosky, this moment underscored the supportive culture at her day job.

"That was such a fantastic gesture. It showed me that they see me as a whole person, not just an employee," she says. That support was visible in the stands during her first preseason game, where colleagues cheered her on. This welcoming atmosphere has been instrumental in her transition to a new city, making Cincinnati feel like home both on and off the field.

Her role at GE Aerospace, which offers a panoramic view of the company's operations, complements her new journey. "Managing the communications calendar is like having a front-row seat to the entire mission of GE Aerospace. I'm constantly learning, and that mindset of continuous growth directly translates to my work with the Ben-Gals," she notes.

As the Bengals charge through the season, Wanosky is poised to enjoy every moment of the ride. She is a testament to the idea that a fulfilling career doesn't require sacrificing personal passions; instead, they can fuel one another, creating a dynamic and powerful whole.
