About

I am a freshman at the University of Iowa where I am also a strength & conditioning intern with the olympic sports. I achieved a 3.91 GPA in my first semester of freshman year at Iowa where I am studying business analytics along with exercise science in aspiration to becoming a data analytic performance coach.

Prior to attending Iowa, I have observed many strength & conditioning programs being run, including Iowa State Football and the University of Minnesota olympic sports. Throughout high school, I played hockey, living away from home for two years of high school while playing AAA and junior hockey.

Outside the classroom

When I am not in the Carver-Hawkeye Arena weight room coaching, I prefer to be outside. My favorite activities are golfing and swimming. Throughout the winter months, I tend to stay inside more playing video games and relaxing. Inside the weight room, I work primarily with Mens & Women's Swimming and Women's Tennis while helping alongside other teams when needed.
