I have been very fortunate to work as a certified athletic trainer in a variety of settings, ranging from private healthcare to high school, collegiate, and professional sports settings. This experience has given me the opportunity to learn how different patient populations respond to movement-related injuries, and a desire to help students learn about the profession of athletic training.
