From a young age, I have maintained a strong interest in science and the human body, and eventually chose to pursue these interests in college. After earning my undergraduate degree in health and exercise science from Syracuse University, I knew I wanted to further my knowledge and understanding of exercise physiology. This led me back to my hometown of Ithaca, NY, for graduate school. I was drawn to Ithaca College for both the academic and professional opportunities that the school offered.

During my time here, I have grown academically through challenging and rewarding coursework, I have gained clinical skills by helping conduct exercise tests on members of the community, and I have developed as a professional by working in the Department of Exercise Science and Athletic Training office and on a variety of other tasks and projects. All of these opportunities have made my time at Ithaca College truly unique and formative. I leave feeling fortunate and grateful to have spent two years learning academically, professionally, and personally from faculty, staff, and colleagues and I have no doubt that all of the things Ithaca College has given me will continue to be of value as I move forward in life.
