About

My name is Harrison A.J. Hall. I grew up in a small Maine town called Kennebunkport. I played many sports growing up such as soccer, hockey, lacrosse, track and field and the occasional backyard football. Throughout my childhood and teenage years I participated in some of the most elite leagues in both soccer and hockey. It was not until my High School career when injuries began to occur, which afforded me the opportunity of observing sports from a whole new side and made me want pursue Athletic Training. During my time at the University of Southern Maine where I received my B.S. in Athletic Training and a Minor in Coaching, I managed a painting company where I gained a good deal of experience managing people, interacting with customers, and overseeing day-to-day projects. It was through all this experience that prepared me for the position I now hold at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi as the Athletic Trainer for the Army ROTC Battalion, and where I now reside in Corpus Christi, Texas, as I seek a M.S. degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Sport Science.

Goals and interests

Career goal

My aspirations are to carry on after graduate school as an Athletic Trainer with a soccer team. My goals are to obtain an athletic training position at the Division I College/University level where I will gain experience to move into the professional setting. Once this has been achieved I will then work towards working for the Men's U.S National Soccer Team.

Graduate school interests

Currently at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi I have been leaning towards studying boots the military utilizes for their soldiers in relation to flat-footed personal who make their way into the services. I believe there is a direct correlation within the footwear being worn with additional overuse injuries that occur while a soldier is active. I also will be aiding the Athletic Trainer who currently works with the Women's Soccer Team to gain experience with soccer a the Division I level.

Outside the classroom

Backpacking, Hiking, Camping, Traveling, Fishing, World History, Politics.
