About
I am currently earning my Masters degree in Exercise Science at Appalachian State University in Boone, NC. I previously worked at my Division III alma mater as an Assistant Wrestling Coach, and Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach. Working there for three years, I gained invaluable experience performing day to day collegiate coaching responsibilities such as recruiting, fundraising, practice planning, scouting, and scheduling among others. Additionally, I implemented training programs for seven different teams. During my first year as an Assistant Coach at the University of Wisconsin, Platteville, I was also a sports performance trainer at a local gym. While there, I was responsible for developing, marketing and implementing small group sport specific strength and conditioning for youth through high school athletes. Prior to coaching and training, I was a strength and conditioning intern for the University of Wisconsin Badgers Sports Performance. As an intern for the football and wrestling teams, I was responsible for setting up free weight, plyometric, and speed equipment for strength training and conditioning sessions. This was the final requirement I experienced before graduating Summa Cum Laude with my Bachelors of Science in Physical Education and Health Promotions from the University of Wisconsin, Platteville.
