Favorite thing about being
an ATC:
- The interpersonal relationship an ATC
builds with their athletes is one of the most rewarding relationships. I
love working with the athletes, they are energetic, entertaining and
always willing to try new things with enthusiasm. Watching an athlete
rehab from and injury and return to their sport with a smile is
rewarding for me and the athltete makes my job that much more enjoyable.
- The high school athletes I work with are
so appreciative of what we do and consequently work hard to do their
best. They make each and every day in the training room a new, fun
adventure that is always unique.
Personal Interests:
- I enjoy skiing and playing lots of different sports, running, mountain
biking, swimming, rollerblading and any outdoor activity. If I am
not watching an athletic event I am playing in one
