Goals and interests

Career goal

Athletic training is by job path I am going for at Grandview University. My end goal is to work for the military and help out USA troops to avoid opioid addiction. Addiction is hard when the doctors prescribe the means for addiction, and with my help, this will not happen. I will give them the treatment and prevention protocols to decrease the injury rate during their physical training.

Graduate school interests

Grandview University

Outside the classroom

I am a person who loves to read, hang out with my friends. I swim when I have an hour to myself. I work a lot 50-60 hours a week, and on the weekends when I do not work, I go to the Mississippi River and fishing with my step-dad and take care of my niece.
