I am a dedicated sports professional with a strong background in athletic performance, coaching, and sports business management. Currently pursuing an MBA with a concentration in Sports Business at Ottawa University (Exp. May 25), I bring a unique combination of practical coaching experience and academic expertise to every opportunity.Upon graduating from Baker University with my BS in Kinesiology, I began my career as an Assistant Fitness Manager at Genesis Health Clubs, where I worked with personal training clients to help them achieve their fitness goals on a one to one level. My passion for sports and athlete development led me back to academia, where I served as a Graduate Assistant in Athletic Performance. In this role, I worked with every athletic team on campus, specializing in programming and overseeing strength and conditioning for Men's Soccer, Women's Soccer, and Women's Lacrosse.In August, I transitioned to a Graduate Assistant role with the Ottawa University Women’s Soccer team. As the sole assistant coach, I manage responsibilities equivalent to a full-time assistant, including planning travel, organizing practices, managing equipment, and recruiting. Additionally, I oversee the team’s sports performance program, focusing on recovery, speed training, plyometric training, and preseason fitness.My diverse experiences as a player, coach, and performance specialist, combined with my academic pursuits, have fueled my passion for building successful teams and developing athletes at all levels.
