Ryan Gray

Hi, I am Ryan Gray, a 2nd year Kinesiology major at Georgia Regents University. At first I had a desire to pursue anything medical, but I soon began to realize that my passion was more specific to the area of Physical Therapy. I can recall years ago when I injured my ankle in the middle of basketball tryouts. I was in so much pain and had to attend physical therapy. I didn't know what to expect at first, but I actually had a great experience, primarily because my therapist were not only helpful, but they communicated, challenged, and supported me through out the entire process. I observered their efforts and sincere desire to help get me back on the court and thought "wow, I would love to help someone else dream again - whether it is to play a sport again, walk again, or simply to be able to enjoy a pain free life." Many may not understand the drive I have to help be able to put a smile on someone else's face, but I know there is a journey that is ahead for me...I am excited to travel this road and am grateful for being accepted into this exceptional Honors Society.
