Goals and interests
- Career goal
Although my education has taught me the fundamentals of a sports management career and my experience has afforded me the opportunity to work in many different fitness/exercise/wellness settings. I am ready to combine these two areas into one, and pursue a fulfilling and meaningful career. I am looking for a position in the fitness and wellness field that would offer me the opportunity to supervise and monitor exercise participants, determine exercise prescriptions, and design workout programs for a diverse population, plus provide motivation. In the sport management field, the ideal position would offer opportunities in design and implement of incentive programs, health promotion, specialty programs, and the ability to perform administrative tasks associated with the facility’s operations. A Position which allows me to combine my knowledge of the sport management industry with my previous employment experiences in the fitness field. This type of position would not only allow me to expand my knowledge of the sport management industry but will also allow me to participate in the day-to-day operations of fitness and wellness facility.
