What has been your favorite experience while being in the MS-AT program? My favorite experience with the program so far has been my clinical experiences. I have gotten to work with a lot of very cool people, and I have had an amazing time working with so many different athletes. What advice would you give someone that’s looking to join our MS-AT program? My best advice for someone looking to join the program is that you have to love working with people. Whether it be with your fellow students, preceptors, athletic trainers or especially with your athletes. You are always working with many different people.

Where do you want to work in the future? I would love to end up with a professional football team in the future. There is so much opportunity that the NFL holds, and it would be amazing to work with the best football athletes in the entire world. What one interesting fact you’ve learned while in class? One interesting fact I have learned in class is that if you do not know your anatomy, then you probably will not do very well.
