I come from a small town called Northampton, Pennsylvania. I grew up as an athlete, mainly playing football and then throwing javelin later on in high school, of which I graduated in 2017. Being active was and is an integral part of my life, so having athletic trainers to support me and other athletes meant a great deal. My athletic trainers influenced the direction I would proceed to follow going into university, and I eventually got job working with them at St. Luke’s University Health Network in Bethlehem, PA (2024). I am grateful for the role I play in student-athletes’ lives, whether it be to help them through an injury, provide them a safe place to talk, or joke around with them. My personal hobbies include jiu-jitsu, MMA, and hiking, and my favorite of all is being around my family.
