Honors and awards
-
Associates of Science Degree from Cincinnati State. Personal Fitness Trainer certification from ACSM.
I received a two year degree in health and fitness from Cincinnati State, and also received a voucher during my time there to take the personal trainer certification through ACSM, once the course series for that test was completed.
Goals and interests
- Career goal
My dream job is actually one of two pathways: I would love to become a professor at a university and also participate in research in the field I'm in. Or I would love to work as a clinical exercise physiologist and help patients with various conditions such as those with cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases.
- Graduate school interests
I would like to go to Ohio State for my masters. I know that the exercise physiologist requires a masters, and the professor requires a PhD, which can also be acquired at Ohio State.
- Outside the classroom
I enjoy playing sports, camping and canoeing in the summer, and skiing in the winter. I also run. Running is a big passion of mine. I have participated in various races from a 5k to a half marathon, and plan on getting into longer distance races. I'm a very adventurous person and enjoy trying new things.
