What has been your favorite experience while being in the MS-AT program? My favorite experience so all of the pre-game excitement especially with UWSP men’s hockey. The energy and the craziness the guys have is really something interesting. What advice would you give someone that’s looking to join our MS-AT program? Be open minded about what sport you want to work with because I have worked with different sports that I ended up liking a lot more than I thought.

Where do you want to work in the future? The plan is to work for a university or a bigger high school like Division 3 or higher. The true ultimate goal is to work for a pro or a semi pro team.

What one interesting fact you’ve learned while in class? A disqualifying condition from all sports is carditis.
